CBR Minor Hockey

Below are the Atom HL Evaluation Groups for players registered up to September 26th, 2018.

Registration:  If you have registered and your child's name is not listed please contact Tina Patey our Registrar or our office through the contact us section. If you have registered your child after Sept 26th, please allow up to 48 hours for your registration to be processed and to be assigned to a group for evaluations.

Communication:  Our main line of communication to parents is our website, please check it frequently for updates. If you haven't done so already, like us on Facebook and/or follow us on Twitter for all hockey news. If you have any questions regarding the Atom HL Program please contact our office through the contact us section until our Atom Coordinator position has been filled.

Evaluations: Your child will start off the season being assigned to an evaluation group. Groups will receive 2 evaluation games scheduled for Oct 1st , Oct 2 and Oct 4th please check the schedule tab for dates/times/rink location. Players are assessed on skating/hockey ability and these assessments are completed by our technical staff and are based on several factors to create balanced teams for the season. Our technical staff has final say over team placement. After the assessments are complete, each player will be assigned a team. 

Please note - Players that are currently trying out for out Atom A/B Teams:  Players that have been released from Atom A/B tryouts will be automatically added to the evaluation groups listed below. The group list will be updated with the new names after phase 1 & phase 2 of the A/B tryouts.

Practice:  As our ice time fluctuates weekly – due to the need for tournaments (for all divisions), Hockey NL league games, Town requirements and other ice rental groups – the location and times of practice will vary week-to-week.  We operate out of the CBS Arena and the RFM (Robert French Memorial) Stadium, always check the rink location when looking at the schedule. Teams first practice will be announced on our website when teams are named.

Home & Away Games: Atom HL teams participate in the IHL (interlocking house league) for all games. Games are normally played on Sundays but that's based on ice availability. In the event that a game is cancelled an alternate day, time & rink location will be provided before the end of the hockey season. Home games are typically played at the RFM Stadium or CBS Arena and away games are played at various rinks in & around the metro area.  Parents can check the IHL website www.ihlhockey.ca for their team's game schedule. The start of IHL games will be announced at a later date once program planning is complete.

IHL Year End Tournament:  As part of the house league program, all teams will play in the IHL year end playoffs and the date will be announced once confirmed.

Safety First!

Please make sure your player is on the ice with full hockey attire — helmet, mouth and neck guards, elbow and shin pads, athletic support, hockey pants, shoulder pads, socks and jersey.  Helmet with full face protection and neck guards are mandatory, mouth guards are optional but recommended.

If your child has any medical issues (i.e. asthma, allergies, attention/behavioural issues, etc.) inform your team’s coach to ensure the proper attention is given to this child.  Please ensure that you have any and all required medical devices/medicine available with you for each practice (i.e. inhaler, epipen etc.).

No player is permitted on the ice while the Zamboni is on and the Zamboni gate is open.  

All players must wait for a coach prior to going onto the ice.

Please use assigned dressing rooms.  Each team is designated a dressing room and it is usually incorporated into the schedule.  Please follow your assigned dressing room to ensure smooth hourly transitions and to prevent overcrowding

When you arrive at the rink on your scheduled day:

1. Please arrive 30 minutes prior to your session
2. Check for your Groups dressing room assignment
3. Check in with the Evaluation Staff

If you have any questions about the program please contact our office through the contact us section until our Atom Coordinator position has been filled.
