House League Select Program 2023-2024

Click here for Select evaluation (tryout) registration. Please note that the price for Select registration evaluations will increase on May 15th.
Select hockey is a great program for players who are ready for more ice time and competition. 
BLOMHA Select hockey is an extension of our House League program. This means that all Select players must register and participate with a House League team. Players must tryout and be drafted onto a Select team. Please review tryout details below.
  • Select teams may play up to 30 games in a season, comprised of 2-3 tournaments and exhibition games against other organizations outside of Burlington. 
  • Teams are able to fundraise to offset Tournament costs, season costs, etc. 
  • Officials and timekeepers are supplied by BLOMHA for all home games.
  • Just like House League there is no body checking in SELECT hockey and teams are bound by a fair and equal ice time policy.

Fees – $1600.00

House League fees are separate to Select fees. Select fees will also include home/away uniforms. 
Teams will receive six (6 sessions) of one hour on-ice instruction with experienced instructors for players and three (3 sessions) for goaltenders. Timekeepers and Officials are supplied and paid for all home games.

Select teams fundraise throughout the season for tournaments, team apparel, team events and so on. All families are asked to pool 'x' amount at the beginning of the season to start a team account. Excess revenue from fundraising maybe returned to the parents to offset the original start up fee. 


Select Tryouts

Evaluations (tryouts) will be held May 28th - June 4, 2023.  Four (4) evaluations (tryouts) will be scheduled for each division and players are guaranteed three (3) sessions.   Registrants will be advised which group they are in one week before evaluations (tryouts). Jerseys will not be provided for tryouts (hence) lower tryout fee.

 

Players must be registered for House League prior to signing up for SELECT evaluations (tryouts).
