DS Information and registration for the 2023/2024 Season.
Stoney Creek Sabres DS
For those unfamiliar to Development Stream (DS) it is a subset of the House
League Program, offering a tryout-based, enhanced opportunity for House League
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 than is afforded by house league
alone.
DS teams will carry 15 players and 2 goalies. Please
keep in mind, if more than 15 players &/or 2 goalies are interested there
will be cuts made.
There is an additional cost to play DS. These costs would
include entry costs for up to 2 tournaments, 4 exhibition games & 6
practices. We would also receive 4 away exhibition games as well. Yes, DS is a big commitment, in addition to the "normal" house league
schedule.
We are looking to play in 2 tournaments which are scheduled for February &
March.
We work to schedule exhibition games and practices where they do
not conflict with house league games but could be on the same day.
DS tryouts are
scheduled on the following dates:
- U9 – Not offered by OWHA this season
- U11 – Sunday November 12th at Saltfleet at 12:00 pm for
1 hour
- U13 – Monday November 13th at Saltfleet at 5:00 pm for 1
and half hours
- U15 – Sunday November 12th at Saltfleet at 1:00 pm for
1 hour
- U18 – Wednesday November 8th at Saltfleet at 7:30 pm
for 1 hour
- U22 – Not offered by OWHA this season
Please register here for the DS tryout on the SCGHA website with no fee. Deadline for registration is before the tryout date for your division!
Thanks,
