Yes, it sounds a bit much. I've seen kids come up like that, only to despise hockey by age 12-13. Be careful. Spring, summer and fall - his main activities should be outside. Focus on well rounded athletic development.

@HockeyDad23 did you try North Pittsburgh or Butler Valley? How did it go?

Looks like there are 32 possible alternates?

No. Play local. http://www.pahockey.com Let them have fun. Save your money for their college.

Here's another classic.

2006 Vengeance? 2007 Vengeance? Maybe you should put something on the Vengeance web site about that.

Good find. Well written. Had a good laugh at hockey directors who oversee 12 teams and make six figure salaries.

At 15-32-12, maybe you should only be playing the top line.

I don't think it works that way with the +2 vs +7. A better conclusion would be: 4 years ago we would have lost by 6, but now we would only lose by 1.5. There would be some merit in that, if your squirt minor and bantam minor teams were the same group of kids.

It's interesting that no one commented on your earlier thread on plans of the PPE 04 Black group. Have you checked that roster to see if there is anyone you might know on that team? Maybe they could direct you. I would say PPE and Vengeance are a given for 15u AAA. I would think only one or two of the others are probably feasible. Esmark is probably most viable. See what your PPE Black friends say.

I went to their web site and thought the same after seeing what's there. It's probably not posted yet. Sidebar: was really surprised by the tryout dates for those younger teams. March 15? Holy Early!

With compliments. Good luck to your player if you have one playing this weekend. Although I couldn't find an AAAA division. 😉

Good luck to all local competitors.
