CDMHA is proud to offer a Select Hockey Program
WHAT IS THE SELECT PROGRAM?
The Select program it's an opportunity for players in house league to play at a more competitive level without the bigger commitment of a rep program.
There is typically one Select team per age group (U9, U11, U13, U15, U16, U18), and tryouts are usually held in September/October. Additional teams may be added, or some cancelled depending on availability of coaches, goalies, and registered players.
Kids who make the Select team get the opportunity to participate in up to 4 tournaments per year and will have organized practices and exhibition games to prepare for the tournaments.
Here are some quick details:
- The team will have up to 4 hours of ice time per month that is used for practices or exhibition games as per OMHA Regulations 4.3
- The Select program is an addition to house league, not a replacement, so players who make the Select team continue to play with their house league team
- Select team schedules will not conflict with house league schedules
- There is an additional fee for those who make the team, typically in the range of $500 to $700 per player.
- Expect practices to be early mornings on weekends or before school
As of the 2024-25 Season, Select teams can play:
- Up to four practice/exhibition games per month
- Up to four tournaments per year
The tryout sessions typically occur at the end of September/October, after the local league evaluations have been completed.
