The truly great players all look at adversity as an opportunity to really shine and improve at the lower level. Physical maturity varies drastically at this age. It is not fun playing at a level beyond your means. If your current playing level prevents you from frequently touching the puck it will be impossible for you to gain the confidence needed to compete. Unless you have tremendous speed and skills, a lack of size and strength are usually short term setbacks at this age.
Hockey is a progressive sport.
There are no limits if you commit to perfecting the major skills. The coaching staff is as talented as there is. They are geared to help you perfect your skills so you can reach your hockey playing goals. Thank you for a great tryout effort by all.
