2007 KNIGHTS OF WEST KELOWNA SPRING HOCKEY CLUB 2016 SPRING SEASON INFORMATION AND REGISTRATION PACKAGE Dear Parents, The Knights of West Kelowna Spring Hockey program for children born in 2007 is comprised of Okanagan based players demonstrating an advanced skill level amongst their peers. The overall focus of the program will be to develop the on-ice skill levels of each player at an accelerated pace and to foster an environment where parents and families can share an enjoyable hockey experience with their children and other families within their community. This year’s team will be selected through a series of evaluation sessions: Open evaluations (anyone born in 2007 can register and participate) will take place: Saturday, December 5: Summerland Arena 6:45pm-8:15pm Wednesday, December 30: Summerland Arena 5:00pm-6:30pm Invite only evaluation will take place: Date and Time TBD The cost to register for the open sessions will be $50 and there will be an additional charge of $10 for the invite only evaluation. To register, please complete the registration and waiver forms attached below and email them directly to Team Manager, Robin Cartlidge, at rc0313@telus.net. Evaluation payment (cheques payable to 2007 Knights of West Kelowna) must be made prior to the start of the first evaluation session. Once the team is selected, regular practices will be scheduled. The team intends to play against similar teams from the BC Interior and also participate in tournaments in the Okanagan and the Lower Mainland. We also plan to host the 4th Annual Round Table Challenge April 8-10, 2016 in West Kelowna. As a group, we pride ourselves in doing everything possible to keep the cost of spring hockey reasonable. Over the years the team has undertaken a number of fundraising and sponsorship initiatives which usually results in approximately 50% of fees being reimbursed back to each family (some years have actually seen even more!). This season, we anticipate that team fees will be approximately $550 and we will again put forth every effort to reimburse as much of this cost as possible through various fundraising efforts and events. Thank you for your interest in our program. Please feel free to visit our website at www.knightsofwestkelowna.com for more information.
