After
consultation with the Bantam AE coaches and the AMHL Board of Directors, a
decision has been made to ice only one Bantam AE team for the 2013-2014 season.
The team will be a mixed age group team of 1999s and 2000s.
OMHA rules will not allow us to ice a minor-aged only AE team if there is no major-aged AE team.
An application will be made to the OMHA to enter the team in the Bantam AE 2 division. If the OMHA does not approve the application, the team will play in the AE 1 division.
In making the decision, the coaches and AMHL Board considered the number of participants trying out, number of available goalies, the impact on Bantam House League, the ability to ice a competitive team, feedback from our 2012-2013 Bantam AE Survey Results and the safety of the players.
The team will be coached by Ed Hebscher. The tryout times are as follows:
Friday - May 3rd - 8:00 - 10:00 pm
Saturday - May 4th - 1:30 - 2:30 pm
Sunday - May 5th - 12:00 - 2:00 pm
We apologize for the short notice however we wanted to notify the participants before the start of the tryout.
Sincerely,
Jack DiSalvia
President - Ancaster Minor Hockey League
