High school and banams lift at the highschool then go to the rink and skate. Pee-wees and squirts skate and do dryland at the rink. I've asked around and I know B-ville, Also offers same type of program.

The 97 CanAms could make things interesting. Will be a fun team to keep an eye on.

Our AAA coaches were so superior to our association coaches (on the whole) that is wasn't even close. My son would learn more in the first 3 weeks of AAA hockey than he did for the whole association year. He now gets a kick out of playing against his AAA teammates and its nice to see the kids talk to each other on the ice after the games with smiles on their faces..........also the banter from the benches when kids skate by, again, is pretty cool......now I know this isn't the case for all programs and know there are a LOT of AAA programs around but it aint all about the Blades, Machine, Icemen, etc.. So MANY good players who do not play on these teams, especially the late birthday of the year kids..........

Completely agree with you..this is exactly what has happened with my son and it's fun to see, especially at tourney time when his teammates come to cheer his team on after they've been eliminated.

That, and new parents to drink with like Old Goalie said.
