Hi U18 Players and Parents,
Today's game was a great reflection of the talent that we have at the U18 level here in Orangeville. I was very impressed. We had a number of players sitting out of the lineup and we were still very competitive and hard to play against.
The final few cuts were difficult. Players that have played for me in the past had to be released. We had a number of players competing for one or two final spots, and it came down to numbers. I'm sorry. Coach Ken and I also decided to carry an extra forward (10 Forwards, 6 Defence, 2 Goalies) because we are going to attempt BB with 15-15-15 minute periods.
Players marked as Selected should arrive at our game tomorrow in Fergus at 10am (unless you have spoken to me). Players that are Released are invited back to our U18B tryouts that will begin Sunday night. We are hoping to field a third U18 team.
Once again, thank you for making my job so tough.
Coach James
