Happens all the time and usually related to finances, but the usual excuse is logistics! Even with the open borders and no fake address's required anymore, mid to end of March, there will be spots opening up. By then, coaches will be filling spots with the leftovers, to the highest bidders. Happens every year, in every age group in the G.Guest wrote: ↑Thu Feb 27, 2025 7:37 amTo go 0-32-1Guest wrote: ↑Thu Feb 27, 2025 7:31 amGuest wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2025 3:22 pmAll well and good but if you're desperate for a spot, it won't make a difference.

From reading the thread, there seems to be various commentary on the character and integrity of new leadership taking over. Due diligence highly encouraged, as history has a weird way of repeating itself. . A reasonable questions to ask prior to making a commitment to this group;

Due diligence highly encouraged. History has a weird way of repeating itself.
$12K + budget next season, add in extra travel costs and your in for $14+K . OMHA family’s paid $5,500 on average. U11 hockey! LMFAO.
hahaha.... Love the "highest bidder" comment. So true on every level. Which homeless player at the 11th hour will offer largest sponsorship commitment. Perhaps Strategic for the hockey school guys like the new TRW guy to make a couple extra bucks in addition to the Saturday night fever skates at Sports Village.
