2012 Season Evaluation Day – Feb 21st

 

The BYLA will be holding annual evaluations for the teams shown below on Tuesday, February 21, 2012 at Sportsplex. This date will take place during our normally scheduled Skills Session. If you are not trying out you will have this session off. Rec. players will have their regular session as normal.

If your son or daughter is interested in trying out for the team within their age group they must register with the Club. Players that do not make the rosters they are trying out for or choose not to be evaluated will be placed on a team based on what is known of their skills and experience. All players will make a team that are currently registered.

 

2012 Evaluation Schedule

Boys  U15A                           6-7pm
           U13A (2 teams)          6-7pm
           U11 Travel*                 5-6pm       (open to all 9 and 10 year olds. Younger players must be approved for travel by the Coaching Coordinator)  

*There will be a Competitive and Non-competitive division again this year for U11 Boy’s in NHYLA. Those players that do not make the Competitive team will default to the Non-competitive team and still play a travel schedule. Depending on how many boys elect to try out will determine whether or not BYLA submits a third U11 travel team.

Girls               U11 Travel**   5-6pm        (open to all 9 and 10 year olds. Younger players must be approved for travel by the Coaching Coordinator)

** The GU11 age group within NHYLA does not separate into Competitive and Non-competitive divisions like the boys. Instead, multiple teams must be split into evenly skilled rosters and will play other travel teams from other towns. Depending on how many girls elect to try out will determine whether or not BYLA submits one or two teams.

The Girls U15 and U13 rosters are full and will not be holding evaluations. Late registrations will be placed on a wait list.

Please make sure you are registering for the evaluations. To prepare for this event properly we must have an idea of who is electing to be evaluated for these teams. Walk on registrations are discouraged.

Email Roger Howe at president@bedfordcannons.org to register.

Contact the appropriate coaching coordinator if you have any questions.

2011 Season is off to a great start!

We are already into our second week of Skills Sessions and the 2011 season is off to a great start. Our rosters for some age groups are already full and we are in a wait list situation. Email notices will go out to those registered players that sent in late registrations to inform you where you stand if you are on a wait list. The following groups are currently at capacity and we are not accepting any further registrations unless the player is willing to be wait-listed.

Girls- U15 and U13. Room is still available for U11 travel candidates and Rec.

Boys- U13. Room is still available for U15, U11 travel candidates and Rec.

Currently, our Boy’s U15 program has room for several U13 players to move up and fill some open roster spots. If you are a U13 boy and would like the opportunity to be considered for a spot on any of the three teams (A, B or C) we will field this season, please let us know. As we have done in the past, your choice to move up must be approved by the Boy’s Coordinator and it will be based on skill and ability as well as a player’s individual safety. It will also be first come, first served for these spots. There are seven spots as of this notice that are available.

Please read and understand the protocols BYLA will follow as you make your decision to play up to the U15 age group:

1. Candidates electing to play up will be allowed to try out for the “A” team.
2. If your son does not make the “A” team after trying out, he will be placed on the appropriate team he is evaluated for. He will NOT be placed back down into the U13 program.
Example: Johnny S. does not make the “A” team and is evaluated as a “B” level player. He will be placed on the U15B team. He will not go back to the U13 age group and be placed on the U13A team or other U13 team.
3. We cannot guarantee who will be your son’s coach for the 2011 season. Head coaches will be permanently assigned after tryouts.
4. The Club’s refund policy will be strictly followed.

Contact Boy’s Coordinator Mike Desroche (mdesroche@insadjserv.com) or President Roger Howe (president@bedfordcannons.org) if you have any questions.
