Information
The BGHC
provides the opportunity for House League players to develop at a higher level via the Development
Stream
(DS) program. These are teams of selected players from the house league program that demonstrate skill
and
desire to compete at a higher level of play and is ideal for players who:
- Are
looking for a development bridge to competitive hockey or
- Do
not
wish to make the commitment, in time or cost, to competitive hockey but are seeking more
competition and
skill development that is afforded by house league alone.
The DS teams
will practice, play exhibition games and enter tournaments outside of their normal House League team.
The DS
program runs concurrently with and cannot interfere with the player’s current house league team.
The BGHC
will
ice teams at the U11, U13 and U15 level, assuming that numbers/talent permit.
The program will run regularly at Burlington ice pads, generally on Sundays, and include
8
exhibition games throughout the season. DS cannot interfere with house league programming, so
there may be
weeks with no DS ice time if ice is not available.
Should your
player be chosen to participate on a DS team, the fee for a full-time player will be $500 - $550.
A lower
price for AP players is set annually. Fees include:
- entry
into 3 tournaments *Excludes U11 for the 2021-22 season as there will be no tournaments for this age division.
- Referee,
timekeeper and ice costs for four HOME games
- team
jersey & socks
- name bar
on jerseys
- regular
ice time between mid November and the week immediately preceding the final DS tournament of the
season
(generally the Easter weekend).
Tryouts will take place in November. A
registration fee will apply to all skaters wishing to take part in the
tryouts.
DS teams are selected by an
independent committee,
which includes the Head Coach.
