U13 B, BB Rep (Newmarket Minor Hockey)

Welcome to the U13BB Evaluation for the Upcoming Season:

A brief intro about the team and myself.

I have been an active coach over the last 6 years coaching his 2 boys in the Timbits and NMHA House League, Select and Rep programs.

As we plan the U13 BB program for the upcoming season, we encourage all 2012 birth year skaters to get out to the tryouts and give their best effort.

As you consider if trying out for the U13 BB would be the right place for your child to play for the upcoming season, please take into consideration the pillars of the culture that the team would be guided by;

·         A safe and supportive environment, built around respect for their teammates and coaches

·         Working hard in a team environment

·         Fun; enjoyment of the game of hockey, looking forward to coming to the rink and being in the dressing room with their teammates

·         … but also, fun in the sense of putting the work in to expand their skills, pushing themselves outside of their comfort zones and realizing the satisfaction that comes from  this type of personal growth

·         And finally, the Permission to Fail; one of many things observed and learned from the kids over the past 5 years of coaching is the weight some of them carry because they are afraid to fail.  All of our players will make mistakes, our coaches will embrace the mistakes with positive energy & supportive messaging.  This is a perpetual and ongoing commitment to your kids.
