Tryout Process
Please see the recent communication from Chris Young regarding the tryout process.

As there have been a lot of questions surrounding tryouts for Rep, AE, and Tri-County I thought an email may help clarify the process. 

It is the goal of everyone in WMHA to have every child participate at the highest level of skill to which she/he may excel at. For teams to be successful we encourage players to go through the try out process.
In order for your child to try out for an AE team he/she must first be released by the rep team. failure to go through this step will result in the child being declared ineligible for AE hockey and will ressult in your child going directly to tri-county hockey.  

I have attached an excerpt form the WMHA Policy and Procedures manual (The Policy and Procedures Manual can be found on the WMHA website) - see below. Please discuss your intention with the head coach before the selection process begins.

Rep head coaches are
Novice - Tom Highfield
Atom - Jason Wadsworth
Peewee - Mike Parker
Bantam - BJ Charpentier
Midget - Chris Jannsens

Tim Horton's
Timbits Minor Sports Program The Timbits Minor Sports Program is a community-oriented sponsorship program for children four to eight years old who participate in local house league sports teams. The program's philosophy is not based on winning or losing - but on learning a new sport, making new friends, and just taking time out to be a kid. Tim Hortons currently sponsors over 200,000 children who play on hockey, soccer, lacrosse, t-ball, baseball and ringette teams across Canada and in the United States. Each sponsored team is supplied with Timbits Minor Sports jerseys or T-shirts. Timbits hockey teams are often given the opportunity to play on-ice scrimmages during intermissions at Junior, American Hockey League (AHL) and National Hockey League (NHL) games. Timbits players are also given the opportunity to play in their own "Timbits Jamboree", a fun-filled Tim Hortons sponsored event where everyone receives a prize, food and beverages.
