2020-21 Tryout Update

Along with all of the hockey programs in the area and with guidance from the Connecticut Hockey Conference, we are continuing to monitor the evolving situation with the Coronavirus outbreak. It is our top priority to protect our players, families, coaches and community.

Per USA Hockey effective today, March 13th all hockey events, including tryouts, are postponed until further notice for all organizations. As soon as we receive notice from USA Hockey as to when this directive will be lifted, we will reach out to you with the new dates and times for tryouts.

We know tryouts can sometimes be a time of stress and uncertainty which is not needed right now.  We should all be focusing on the health and safety of our families during this time.  Please don’t worry about hockey tryouts and know that it is the CT RiverHawks goal for all returning players and goalies to have a spot on a RiverHawks team next year in addition to growing the program with new faces! We will sort all of this out when our lives return to normalcy.
