Frequently Asked Questions

Am I registering to be on a team or training group?

These are supplemental training sessions designed for players that wish to continue learning and improving before our spring programming where players are organized into “teams”.

Winter training groups are organized based on ability, and coaches may recommend players move to another group if they believe the player will be more appropriately challenged.

Scrimmages are still played during the winter during training sessions, but there are no “game days” against other teams.

Can I still register if I cannot attend all of the sessions?

Participation and Learning
