I just wanted to acknowledge all the hard work these boys have put into trying to make this team. It is a stressful process that started with the U11B team, but keep in mind that if your name is not on the list below that doesn’t mean you didn’t play well. Tough decisions have to be made, but it gives those players a chance to develop and thrive on a LL team.
I used three individual non-parents, who know hockey, to evaluate the players. I switched numbers to ensure that each evaluation was fresh and to minimize any bias – I did not want them to know who any of the players were. They were scored on hard skills such as skating and shooting but also on team play, positioning and overall hockey awareness. Each category was given a score from 1 -5 on but the players were also given an overall ranking. If the rank didn’t match the added-up scores, then a discussion was had regarding the discrepancy. My more difficult decisions were based solely on these scores/rankings because I have known many of these players for years and carry my own biases.
I also used three different evaluators for the two goalies and had further discussions with other goalies on what is best for player development and team balance.
I am pleased to announce the U11 B2 team for the 2024/25 season.

Congratulations on making the team and I hope your efforts continue throughout the season. Our first practice is Tuesday September 24th at 7:00 p.m. in Ilderton.
If your name is not on this list, you will be assigned to one of the U11 Ilderton Local League Teams. Good luck and have fun this season!
