Here we are, our last weekend without hockey! 

 I am excited to get back and see all the players on the ice again. The response to our preseason development has been fantastic, and it will provide a strong foundation for our players to start the season. To clarify any misconceptions that may be out there, no player is being evaluated, scored or judged on any on ice performance prior to October 1st. All evaluations for team placements will take place during the official tryout process.

As we prepare for our first week on ice, I want to remind everyone that at this time, the only people allowed in the rink are those on ice, the dressing room attendants, and the safety- check in person.These volunteers can remain in the arena but must follow the safety protocols outlined in the Rebound Plan . Thanks to those who have reached out to full-fill some of these rolls, but we are still in need of more volunteers. If you are able to volunteer, please use the link at the bottom of this email to access the interactive spreadsheet and add your name where you are able to. 

Players can begin arriving 20 minutes prior to their scheduled time, and it is recommended that they come dressed, or partially dressed, including skates tied, if they are unable to do these by themselves. Masks must be worn inside the arena at all times, unless players are on the ice. Respect social distancing when possible.

Good morning Chebucto Families,
 I hope you are enjoying summer so far, as a sense of normalcy is on the doorstep.  CMHA is working on the 2021-2022 Season and are hopeful for a normal start with less restrictions. Keeping in mind, we are still under Public Health Restrictions. All of the 2021-2022 Season plans will be communicated as soon as possible.
Some key dates to plan for are as follows:
July 14^th- Registration opens
Aug 18^th- Competitive Registration CLOSES
Aug 18^th- Walk in night in the Atlantic Room-Spryfield Lions rink- 6:00pm-8:00 pm ***you can register for Competitive here as well.

Oct 1^st- Tryouts begin TBA
Oct 15^th- Regular Season begins
***All dates and planning are subject to change based on HNS and Public Health.
Online Registration for all age groups opens July 14, 2021. 
Please note: Hockey Canada has upgraded their registry to HCR 3.0 This means you will notice the website will look different. You will have to follow and read thoroughly the step-by-step instructions to update your own accounts for your player, volunteers and coaches. Once you have completed this step, you can proceed with your registration. WE do not manage HCR, if you need assistance you will have to contact them.
All 50-50 credits from last season will be added when you register.
All players wishing to attend tryouts from U11-U15 must be registered by August 18,2021. No late registration will be permitted.
 A $150 non-refundable fee for players trying out for Competitive teams (U11-U18), MUST be included with registration and is in addition to the base fee. Please make note of the questionnaire to choose your players jersey size for the tryout jersey, please make sure you are shoosing the correct sizes, no changes can be made once ordered. Last season tryout jerseys are not able to be used.
 
Please note: we are hoping to have a U15 B team for the 2021-22 Season.  For any U15 Competitive players wishing to play U15 B non checking, you will need to pay the tryout fee as well. 
Reminder- If you are new to U15 Competitive and are planning to play CHECKING hockey- your player must have completed a certified Checking clinic prior to tryouts. You will need to provide proof prior to attending any checking hockey. CHMA has completed the checking clinic and will not be offering any further programs. If you have not attended our certification camp that was run through OUTSIDE EDGE, then you will have to find an alternate camp. If you are a 2^nd year U15 player you only have to complete this once.
  The Tryout fee can be found under other items, “Try Out Fee”.

Hello Chebucto Families,
 
Registration for the 2021 - 2022 minor hockey season has begun, I just wanted to pass along some important information for those planning on trying out for competitive hockey at the U11 - U18 levels.
 
Tryout Information
 
Parents and players: Please read the following information regarding CMHA tryouts for 2021 - 2022. It contains important information concerning our tryout processes. As registration closes, and we have final numbers for players, more information will become available.
 
Tryout Dates
 
As per Hockey Nova Scotia’s Rebound Plan, tryouts will begin October 1st.
 
Identification Camps
 
During the month of September, we will be holding mandatory identification camps for all players wishing to try out for competitive. These sessions will allow for players to be grouped appropriately for tryouts in October. As registration closes, more information will be provided regarding dates, times, etc.
 
Tryout Jerseys
 
When registering your child, please make sure to include an appropriate jersey size, as we will be utilizing these jerseys to identify players during tryouts. Once registration has closed, each player will be assigned a number and this will identify them throughout the tryout process. These jerseys will be handed out at the beginning of identification camps.
 
U15/ U18 Players
 
For players registering for U15 or U18, you are asked to inform CMHA if you are trying out for a U15 Major, U18 Major/ Minor team, and/ or a High School Team. Please make sure to reach out immediately to CMHA if you are successful in making a team, and no longer wish to try out for a team in CMHA.

Hello Chebucto Minor Hockey Association (“CMHA”) Members,

The CMHA is pleased to announce that we will be offering pre-season development sessions for our players.  With an official start date of October 1^st for the upcoming season, this is an opportunity for our players to shake off the rust and refine their individual skills.  Our on-ice program is designed for players of all skill levels from U9 to U18 to prepare for the upcoming season. These sessions will include a broad range of drills while following Hockey Nova Scotia‘s Rebound Plan.
 
Our preseason will run August 27th - August 31st and resume September 7th and will run through until the final week of September.  Below you will find the days and times, however, the exact dates and time slots for specific groups will be confirmed once registration is closed. All sessions will take place at either the Halifax Civic Arena & Halifax Forum.
 
 
We will be offering Development Session Blocks at a cost of $125 per Block.  Each Block will consist of 5 x 1-hour on-ice sessions, for a total of 5 hours per Block which equates to roughly 1 hour of ice per week.  Players can choose to register for 1 or 2 Blocks. Goalies can register for the Goalie Development Blocks lead by Justin Ritcey. If an opportunity arises, goalies may be asked if they would like to attend the players blocks at no additional cost. 
 
You can register through the attached Google Form. The deadline to register is August 19th and Block groupings and times will be posted on August 23rd. Payments need to be made by e-transfer to treasurer@chebuctominorhockey.com.  Please use the password "hockey" and include the player’s “full name” and “birth year” in the message section.  Players will not be considered registered, and thus will not be eligible to participate, until payment has been received.
Please follow this link to register:

Due to the COVID-19 guidelines we must follow, spectators will not be permitted at this time, however this restriction may change. All players, on ice staff and volunteers will still need to follow Public Health guidelines. This includes wearing masks into the arenas and in dressing rooms. If players are unable to dress themselves, please have them arrive full gear. Please remember that anyone attending or volunteering in any CMHA sessions must self assess for Covid 19 symptoms and only come if you are feeling well. We appreciate your adherence to this. Until such time, that our Public Health measures change, we will be following these practices.

If you have any questions or require further information, please contact our VP Development, Ja-red Glazebrook, at chebuctodevelopment2021@gmail.com
 
DAYS & TIMES- 
Monday – Friday – 5:00 PM – 10:00 PM
