2024-25 Rep Tryout Information & Pre Tryout Clinics

UPDATED MARCH 14, 2024

Tryouts - U9B, U11B, U13B, U15B/BB, U18A/BB, U18B 

Tryouts are just around the corner and Rep registrations on the RAMP portal for tryouts and pre-tryout clinics will open on March 19, 2024 (link below). Tryouts will begin May 5th and conclude May 19th.  All tryouts are on the Rotary Green surface.

New this year will be our U9B Rep program. Registrations in our U7 and U9 programs have been strong and we are pleased to be in a position to offer U9 Rep for the 2024-25 season. This program will still follow all Hockey Canada and OWHA Guidelines and Pathways for U9 hockey but will offer a higher level of competition and development for those who are ready for the next level.

Also new this year will be a tryout for a U18A/BB. After team selections have concluded exhibition games will take place as well as on ice sessions prior to the season starting and if warranted the team may be moved up to A Division from BB. No confirmation on team categorization will be made at tryouts but efforts will be focused on the formation of an A team.

The OGHA Tryout Policy and Procedure is posted on the website and must be read and acknowledged by each participant as part of the registration process.  You can see the policy here;

Rep Tryout Policy

Any questions regarding tryouts or the formation of teams should be directed to the Director of Rep at rep@orilliagirlshockey.com
