To all Chebucto Families,

IMPORTANT NOTE TO U18 PARENTS AND PLAYERS

Good evening,

With regards to evaluations for U18 competitive, due to U18 Major, U16AAA, and HS tryouts and dates as well as ice availability, we have not yet determined when tryouts will begin. The past two years they started immediately following the completion of U11, U13, and U15, so it is likely that things will follow the same timeline. When we have determined an actual start date, we will communicate it with membership.

Thanks,

Stephen

U13AAA Tryouts Start Date - September 15th

U11-U15 Tryout Start Date - September 22nd (U15AA Tryouts are being pushed back a week because the U15 Major Tryouts are starting later this year)

Information for those players trying out for U15 Major, U16AAA, HS, and U18 Major

 Hi,

Just a quick note regarding registration for players who are planning on trying out for U15 Major, U16AAA, HS, or U18 Major.

 There are two options for these players:

 1. Register for Chebucto now. If a player is successful in making a team in one of these leagues without stepping on the ice for tryouts in Chebucto, they will be issued a full refund of all fees. If a player does step on the ice for tryouts in Chebucto, they will be charged the tryout fee, but all other registration fees will be refunded.

 2. Email myself, and our registrar, to inform us that you will be trying out for teams in one of these leagues, and if unsuccessful, will be returning to Chebucto to try out for our competitive teams. Your name will be placed on a list with all other players attempting this, and you can register at the time of your return.

 If you do not choose one of the two options above, you will be charged a $50 administrative fee when registering, or you may not be permitted to register, depending on the time of your return.

 If you have any questions or concerns regarding this, please feel free to reach out.

 Thank you,

 Stephen

It has come to our attention that Gray Jay is not allowing payment plans for any player with a 50/50 credit on their account.  

Gray Jay is aware of the issue and confirmed it will be corrected by July 19, 2023.

We apologize for any inconvenience. 

Anyone impacted by this should wait until tomorrow to register!

Thanks,

Alicia

Thanks

If you are a new or returning player to CMHA, you can register your player online using GrayJay Pay

NEW for 2023-24 - Chebucto will now use Gray Jay Pay for general registration

Hello Chebucto,

The Preliminary Pre-Season Development schedule is here and sign ups will start this week coming:

Pre-Season Development Schedule

Please Note: While we will make every effort to not completely change the schedule there will likely be some adjustments based on signup numbers. We've built some flexibility into the schedule based on available ice time. The final schedule and player groups will be set very soon after Pre-Season session sign up ends.

Similar to last year for each player and goalie we will be offering two 5 session blocks. 

Participants will be asked to register for each block individually through the Gray Jay Pay site and sign ups will be limited.

All pre-season goalie development sessions will be run and overseen by Upper Echelon Goaltending.

We will also be offering U7 development sessions for sign up and "try hockey" for both new players and new goalies (more on this to follow).

Pre-Season Volunteers:

As always, we are seeking volunteers to help make our Pre-Season development sessions a success. Volunteers help us reduce cost and make these sessions accessable to all while still maintain very high level of quality pre-season instruction. 

We are seeking:

• One Ice Lead Coaches
• On Ice Assistant Coaches (Goalie and Player)
• Dressing Room Monitors 
• Check in Staff
• Goalie Session Shooters

If you'd like to volunteer in any capacity please fill out and submit the following form and we will be in contact shortly.

Pre-Season Volunteer Form

Thanks in advance

Lets Go Chebucto
