Additional Tournament Options:

In addition to the 3 tournaments listed above, teams will also have the ability to participate in other l tournaments as a team, based on participation interest and player availability. These tournament fees will be in addition to the regular registration costs and will be determined based on numbers for each event. We are looking at the following tournaments as additional options:

NARCh Regional Redding (March 6-8)

NARCH Regional San Jose (April 10-12)

WISH Cup Nashville (End of May)

NARCH Finals (Jul 9-20)

Team managers should coordinate these events with the coaches. Some teams are already planning/registered to attend the NARCh Redding and San Jose events as extra tournaments.

Team Tryouts

Due to the time constraints of rink installation and the first tournament, we will be aiming to conduct team tryouts during the first week of roller practice. Details about when these tryouts will occur, and their format, will be posted as soon as possible. Both the tryout and a player's history with the program will determine team roster selections. The coaches will ensure that new players to the program are given every opportunity to showcase their skills prior to team selections.

Depending on the roster sizes at each age level, there may be opportunities for multiple teams.

For those players not selected for a team roster, there may be an opportunity to continue as a Development Player. Details about practice opportunities for development players will be determined as the season moves forward. We would encourage Development players to also enroll in the Bend Park and Rec league to add additional practices and games each week.

The initial registration payment of $50 will cover the first week of practice and the team tryouts. For those players selected to a team roster, your next payment will occur once you accept a position on your team.

For those players selected to the Development Program, you will NOT be automatically charged beyond the initial season payment cost of $50. Development Players will pay a reduced fee, this fee will be based on the number of Development Players we have, and will be determined after the initial tryout period.

(AAU Membership Requirement for all)

An AAU Membership is required to ensure everyone on the rink for our program is insured. This fee is paid by all participants for the tryout period and the regular season and is non-refundable - $20 (This will done outside the enrollment with the Bullets, see below for the link)
