2018-2019 CCYHA Travel Teams

Updated 4/28/2018 6:18 PM

Below are the teams.  They will be posted as soon as they are completed.  Please remember:

• First picked (AA) teams will be posted first no later than Tuesday evening.
• Second picked (A) teams will be posted no later than Saturday afternoon as there are still tryouts for some birth years occurring on Thursday.  The AA teams need to be finalized first but we will post as soon as teams are completed.
• Once posted, ALL selected players for our teams will receive an email from CCYHA and a phone call from the coach within 24 hours to confirm immediate acceptance.

We will have a supplemental tryout for additional players for the 2005A team.

Players that tried out and are not listed below will have the ability to try out for the final spots on this team as well.

The tryout will be in the next few weeks. Once the ice is secured, it will be posted on our home page, social media and emailed to current registrants.  This tryout is open.  There is no cost to those that have already paid a try out fee and will be $35 to all new registrants.  If you have already accepted a spot on this team, please feel free to come and skate as well.

2018-2019 CCYHA Travel Tryout Information

This page includes all the information you need for 2018-2019 CCYHA travel tryouts. (Tryouts for the Development program is in the fall as it an extension of our house program) 

Please read through all the information completely. Registration links will be added soon. Dates and times for the the Girls' Travel Hockey Tryouts are posted on our home page. 

Tryout Dates

CCYHA travel tryouts will begin April 19, 2018. Travel Tryout registration will be open April 2 (to coincide with the opening of the new USA Hockey season) and close on April 9, 2018. The only exceptions to this registration deadline are for players who try out for and don’t make a AAA Ohio Blue Jackets team and players who move to Columbus from out of town between April 9 and the tryout dates below.   

Players who do not make a 10U/Squirt AA or 14U/Bantam AA team and wish to try out for a mixed birth year A team will not have to register again or pay a separate fee. 12U/Peewee AA and A tryouts will be held in the same session.

Optional Spring Tune-up Skate Sessions

Once again this year, current CCYHA players (skaters/goalies) can sign up for travel tune-up skate sessions that take place in March/early April for a $45 fee. These sessions are open to a limited number of players. Current CCYHA travel and development players can register until March 4th, before the sessions are open up to all CCYHA players in these age groups. These sessions are designed to give players the opportunity to get additional ice time between the end of the season and try-outs if they desire. Separate sessions will be held for U10/Squirt, U12/Peewee and U14/Bantam age divisions, with all sessions run by CCYHA coaches and Board members. There is limited room in these sessions, so register early! To register, please go to our Registration Page.

Pre-tryout Conditioning Camp

New this year, CCYHA will hold a pre-tryout conditioning camp for all players who register for travel tryouts. The sessions will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays the weeks of April 9 and April 16 at the Dublin Chiller, and will be run by CCYHA travel coaches and Board members. The cost of the sessions is included with your tryout fee. These sessions are an opportunity for your player to receive additional ice time leading up to tryouts. Registration for these sessions is part of the tryout fee registration process.   

Tryout Fees & Schedule

The tryout fee is $100. In addition, we are continuing the pre-payment of a $300 commitment fee implemented last year, also due at registration – for a total of $400 due at registration. The commitment fee allows evaluators to focus on the CCYHA players interested in playing travel hockey with CCYHA and goes toward travel fees for players who are offered and accept a spot on a CCYHA travel team. If a player is offered a spot on a CCYHA team and accepts the same or lower-level offer at another organization (e.g. First picked (AA) offer at CCYHA and First Picked (AA) offer at other local organization, or AA offer at CCYHA and A offer at other local organization), they will lose the commitment fee. If they get a higher-level offer at another local organization (e.g. AA offer at other local organization and A offer at CCYHA), we will refund the commitment fee. We also will refund the commitment fee to players who tryout for CCYHA and are not offered a spot. 

The final number of teams is dependant upon the number of qualified players trying out, but our plans are to form the following teams:

Players who do not make a 10U/Squirt AA or 14U/Bantam AA team and wish to try out for a mixed birth year A team will not have to register again or pay a separate fee. 12U/Peewee AA and A tryouts will be held in the same session.

Registration link for tryouts will be posted on this page shortly.
