I could see some associations having tryouts in the morning and afternoon to avoid this... call me crazy... but I have seen crazier things in minor hockeyGuest wrote: ↑Sat Mar 08, 2025 6:48 pm We all know AAA/AA/A tryouts are scheduled during the same time frame , do we think associations will do their best to schedule them on the same days and times? Kids can now tryout for multiple teams at a time but that will be irrelevant if associations do what I’ve been hearing.

yes the time frames are always the same, but will they try and schedule the exact times of day to prevent families from trying out for multiple teams?Guest wrote: ↑Tue Mar 18, 2025 5:03 amOMHA has had their dates set.

Some neighbouring centers will want to try and pull players from their home centers... so you can bank on some orgs to have morning or afternoons tryouts to avoid this.

Yes teams are made, so they might as well make as much as possible from tryoutsGuest wrote: ↑Tue Mar 18, 2025 11:09 amyes the time frames are always the same, but will they try and schedule the exact times of day to prevent families from trying out for multiple teams?

yes, this does make the most sense. We shall see how it all plays our in a week or so when they dates/times are announcedGuest wrote: ↑Fri Mar 21, 2025 9:38 am The better teams won't care about when they schedule tryouts. They know they will attract the best kids.
It's those middle tier teams that have to schedule their tryouts strategically so they can attract the best cuts from the better teams.
The low end teams, who are smart, will schedule their tryouts later in the window so they can attract all of the cuts from above.
