NORTHWEST WARRIORS 2024 EVALUATIONS
EVALUATIONS OVERVIEW
- Northwest Warrior community hockey evaluations are not tryouts, but an assessment of a player’s overall ability and hockey sense. The goal is to determine which division each player is best suited to play in.
- Player groupings will be communicated using TeamSnap as soon as the groupings are available.
- Our Evaluations Committee works around-the-clock during evaluation period to collect and review evaluation data. Players will be informed of their next ice time as soon as it’s possible.
- All players are required to attend our evaluations process. If you are unable to make an evaluation session, it is your responsibility to contact your Age Group Coordinator.
Injured and absent players will be treated as fairly as possible. The Evaluation and Team Formation Committee(s) will make decisions on placement of players that are injured or absent.
Players are expected to attend all their assigned evaluation sessions. Players that are injured/ill, and not able to participate in the evaluation process, or not able to participate in an evaluation session, will be required to let the Age Group Coordinator know that the player is not able to participate.
