Advanced Mite Teams. Your Thoughts?

[Sunsetcliffs98]

Are there many associations that have them? Do they get out and play other associations?

[Chandler23]

You mean like A mites?

go 1 hour of private skating lessons every day before the bus picks em up for abc's and coloring.

Then try out and hopefully make the super mite WOLFPACK team!

Thats the ticket to a first round draft pick by his JR. yr of HS!

The wolf pack just gets less and less funny as it gets older, like a SNL skit that was rolled out one to many times then turned into a movie (Pat, Night at the Roxbury, McGruder,...) not sure if your ripping on the poster here as an over the top hockey parent but "Advanced" is just the term they use for the level (at least in our district).

In District 3 they do Advanced Mites. They play cross ice and do a limited travel schedule with weekend jamborees, the last few weeks of the season they switch to full ice. No refs just coaches on the ice, no penalties, no score kept, offside but very little switch on the fly mostly buzzer switches every 90 seconds. Primarily last year mites to prep for squirts. Seemed to be a good way to do things for the smaller associations (Mound, Hopkins, Armstrong, SLP) that don't have a huge house league to get good games for last year mites.

Used to be in district 1 and they did A, B, C Mites. A mites were all full ice and a travel schedule back then not sure if they still do that on the east side or not.

HEY! Leave McGruber out of this, that was genius.

Kids should really be playing organized hockey by age 4 if they want to have any shot at making a top AAA team when they are 6.

Two hours you will never get back plus the vision of a naked man with celery stuck in his rear, brilliant.

That was the same excuse that the producer of Ladies Man used.

I'm glad we finally found some common ground.

I think we need to start a different thread for MacGruber. I loved that movie.

That was helpful...
