AA Second Tryout Request Process

 

Upon release from your local AA team, players are eligible for a second tryout with another AA team As per the Hockey Alberta AA Model guidelines.  If approved, a player on a second tryout must be evaluated for a minimum of two (2) ice times and it must be determined as to whether or not the player has made the team by October 1st.  Please keep in contact with your local MHA as some associations may form their house teams prior to October 1st.

 

PLEASE NOTE: The NAHL league (U13, U15, U18) can only grant second tryouts for players who are registered with a local MHA/Club outside the Hockey Edmonton Boundaries.  For U15 and U18 players who live inside Hockey Edmonton Boundaries (CAC, KC, MLAC, SSAC) please click on this link.  For all U13 players who live inside Hockey Edmonton Boundaries (KC, NEZ, NWZ, Serra, SWZ) contact your association.
