2025/26 Tryout FAQ

FAQ

How come CCYHA only allows 24 hours to accept a roster spot on a team?
This practice is not unique to CCYHA, its important to finalize teams and communicate with all tryout participants on the outcome for their individual child in a timely manner
Tryouts are the most stressful part of the year for most families, and we try to eliminate as much of the waiting by seeking commitments quickly

Can my child remain anonymous on registration and shared documents prior to tryouts?
Yes, if you have concern and would like your child's name anonymous on the shared documents prior to tryouts, we can accommodate.
Please email us at ccyhainfo@gmail.com with your child's name, birth year, and your indication to remain anonymous.
Only a few individuals have access to registration names prior to tryouts and do not share that information.

My child can only attend one of the sessions that is scheduled, what do we do?
In the event you are unable to attend your assigned session, please reach out to ccyhainfo@gmail.com with your child's name, birth year, quick explanation of the situation

My child would only like to try out for the Development Team, not the travel teams
We have transitioned this year to a combined tryout, with both Travel and Development teams being picked from the same tryout sessions
Please email us at ccyhainfo@gmail.com with your child's name, birth year, and your indication that you wish your child to ONLY be considered for a spot on the development team. We will make note on our evaluation forms
If you would like to be considered for travel and development team, no action is needed and your player will be evaluated for all teams

Can I change which tryout group I am in when they are released?
