All registered U7 Players should have received a welcome email today from our U7 Coordinator, Emily H.  If you don't see it, please check your junk/spam folder before emailing her at [email protected]

As per the attached "All-Skate" schedule, our U11, U13, and U18 players are back on the ice on Monday, September 16th.  Our U15 players begin on Tuesday, September 17th, U9 on Wednesday, September 18th, and U7 on Saturday, September 21st.  As part of the updated Hockey Canada Pathways program, each age group now has the opportunity to be on the ice four times to get comfortable in their gear and gain confidence before any player evaluations begin to take place.

After the "All-Skates", we will begin Muskrat Voyageurs Tryouts for our U11, U13, and U18 Competitive Rep B teams.  That schedule is included in the above schedule for the entire preseason.  Details on how to register are available here: Tryout Schedule for Muskrat Voyageurs

Our "Sort-Outs" are when we divide each age level of House League players onto teams.  Attending sort-outs is very important, in order to place each player on the appropriate team for their skill level, and in the case of more than one team for a skill level, to balance the two or three teams.  U7 and U9 Players will receive an email just before their first sort out session with their ice time to attend during the first hour or the second hour.  

U21 players, we haven't forgotten you!  We are still working on player recruitment across District 5 to have enough players for a league for you.  We will be in touch by email this week!  

Finally, we are still missing some very important members of our Muskrat team for this season!
House League Coaching Applications are now open here: House League Coaches Needed!

We also still don't have a House League Convenor or Risk Management Coordinator, so please reach out to learn more about either role!
