CPYHA families:

We were able to get a better understanding of the NYSAHA notification that was shared with you all last week.  From that we have come up with the following plan for the upcoming season.

Starting May 30th we are asking that all members pre register for tryouts on our website at http://www.cliftonparkyouthhockey.com/page.php?page_id=44&rtv=2

Note that the first step is to register with USAH for the 2020-2021 season and then to register for the CPYHA tryout, and/or team.  While we do  not have the exact dates yet that we can hold the tryouts, this will give us a good indication of the number of teams that we will have by age classification.  This also will minimize the amount of person to person contact at tryouts which coincides with current CDC guidelines for openings.  The cost of the tryouts vary by age group and the number of tryouts planned for each group.  We also request those that are in a position to do so to register for the season at this time. 

Signings and Tryouts

The notification that NYSAHA distributed talked about associations ability to sign players effective June 1 or June 10 depending on classifications.  CPYHA has decided the following concerning signings:

• Eagles teams of all classifications will not be doing any signings and all teams will be determined by a tryout format as has been conducted previously.
• 10U Minor Dynamo will not be doing any signings and the team will be determined by a tryout format as has been conducted previously.
• 10U Major and 12U Minor/Major Dynamo will have the option of signing up to 10 players at the coaches discretion.  If the coach does decide to sign players, you must sign a commitment form and register with USA Hockey, the tryouts and also with CPYHA within 48 hours of the signing. Remaining team positions will be determine by a tryout.
• 12U-18U Girls Dynamo will have the option of signing players at the coaches discretion, remaining team positions will be filled by a tryout
• Once we have a firm date on tryouts they will be posted on the website and a communication will go out to the membership.

If you have any questions on this please feel free to email me at tomrourke66@gmail.com.
