U9 Evaluations

2026/27 Evaluations

U9 Evaluation Schedule

All registered U9 players will participate in two Alphabet Skates, one Skills Evaluation and three Game Evaluations.

Players will be divided alphabetically by last name for the Alphabet Skates. These groupings are for scheduling purposes only and will not affect where a player begins formal evaluations.

Skills Evaluation groups will be assigned separately. Following the Skills Evaluation, players will be placed into groups for the first round of Game Evaluations. Evaluation groups may change between rounds based on evaluation results.

Player assignments and any additional instructions will be emailed to families and posted on this page once groupings have been finalized.

Full equipment is required. Evaluation pinnies will be provided. Players must attend only the session to which they have been assigned.

Alphabet Skates

Each player will attend one Alphabet Skate during Round 1 and one Alphabet Skate during Round 2.
