Registrations: Tryout registration for the Winter 2026 Regional Training Centre (RTC) is now open. You may want to read the details below from last year’s tryouts to be familiar with the process.

BOYS REGISTRATIONS

Winter 2026 Tryout Schedule (to be posted by the end of registration)
Tryouts will be held between Jan 11th and 24th for ALL groups at locations to be confirmed. This is a live document, so check back for updates (last updated date/time indicated in the spreadsheet).

Multiple sessions. There are two tryout sessions for each age group and gender. Athletes should attend both sessions for their age group to ensure they can be properly and fairly evaluated. Physical Testing and on-court assessments are a critical part of tryouts (check schedule for your age group). *IMPORTANT: athletes must attend check-in before their on-court assessment or physical testing. Athletes who missed the first session on Jan 11th must attend the make-up check-in before their on-court session.

For New Families. We have a Virtual Parent Town Hall and Q&A session that goes over the tryout process and information. The link for the recording can be found HERE.

Ages. The RTC is for 11U – 18U athletes (2007-2014). Please view “Age Categories” under “The Process” to determine Age Group based on Birth Year.

Safety Net. Those who are not selected for the Regional Training Centre, are not guaranteed any spots in our learn-to-play or recreational division. The LTP and Rec programs typically sell out very quickly, so, if the athlete is passionate about continuing at another level, we recommend registering for a program as well as for tryouts. If the athlete gets an offer for the Regional Training Centre, all costs for the LTP/Rec program will be refunded.

Tryout Fees.
Early Bird (early January) $75 +HST
Regular (mid-January) $95 +HST (dates TBD)

Deadlines. The Early Bird discount ends on December 21st at 11:59 pm EST, and regular tryout registration closes on Jan 4th at 11:59 pm EST. Athletes who register for the Early Bird will have their T-Shirt size request guaranteed. Late entries are not accepted.

THE PROCESS

IMPORTANT: Make sure your registration information includes a valid email address that you check regularly.

Once you register for tryouts, your email address becomes part of our communication network through LeagueApps.

Age Categories

Do not register the same athlete for more than one age group. The designated age category is based on a player’s birth date, however, an extended date range allows some players to try to play up or down a level, based on the best fit for athlete development. During tryouts, your coach can make recommendations if they feel a player should be in a more beneficial age group than the year of birth indicates.

Age Categories 2025-2026 season

11U – born in 2015 or after
12U – born in 2014
13U – born in 2013
14U – born in 2012
15U – born in 2011
16U – born in 2010
17U – born in 2009
