2024-25 Tryout Guidelines:

No Spectators - CLOSED TRYOUTS
We will not be allowing spectators this year and we ask parents to NOT congregate inside the rink. 

Attire
SVHA will provide each skater with a reversible jersey with a number for tryouts.  This jersey will be RETURNED at the end of the skater's tryout sessions.  Failure to return the jersey will result in a $100 fee.  No names and no emblems of PAHL, PIHL, or AAA teams are permitted at tryouts. Please also remove identifying pants shells and socks for tryouts.  Players will be asked to leave the ice, remove the identifying items before returning to the Tryout.

Check-In Tables 
Please arrive ONLY 45 minutes prior to check in at the SV table in the lobby when you enter Baierl.  We ask that your player checks in before EACH Tryout. The Tryout Paperwork page will list the details of what will be needed at Tryouts.


Water Bottles
Players must bring their own water bottle marked with their player’s name. 

Seneca Valley Hockey is considered a FALL sport.  Players will need a valid 2024-2025 USA Hockey number during registration, and if new to the organization, they will need to bring a copy of the players Birth Certificate to the pre-skate or first day of tryouts (please no originals).
