2026 MITE TRYOUTS
Practice Jerseys:
Players should bring their Cyclones Practice Jersey to ALL tryouts. If you purchased one with registration, you will receive it when you check in on the first day.
Check-In:
When you arrive, players should:
- Check in at the check-in desk.
- Confirm their practice jersey number.
- Receive their assigned jersey color.
First Tryout – Saturday, 08/15/2026
- Last Names A–K: 10:40 AM
- Last Names L–Z: 11:50 AM
After Each Tryout:
After the first tryout, some players may receive an email letting them know they do not need to attend the remaining tryouts.
The same process will happen after the second tryout. Players who do not need to attend the final tryout will be notified by email.
If a player is asked not to attend a particular tryout, it is simply so coaches have more time to evaluate the remaining players.
This process allows coaches to give all skaters a fair and thorough evaluation.
Locker Room Information:
Parents may assist their child with getting dressed in the locker room. However, because the locker rooms can become very crowded, if your child is able to get themselves mostly dressed, we ask that parents stay out of the locker room and have their child come out to you if they need assistance with anything.
This will help keep the locker rooms less crowded and allow players to get ready as efficiently as possible.
Anticipated Team Practice Start Date:
We anticipate team practices will begin around Tuesday, 09/01/2026. This date is subject to change. The complete practice schedule will be posted and sent out once all teams have been finalized.
Team Selection:
All families will receive an official Crossbar email by Sunday, 08/23 with their team selection and instructions to accept the position on the team within 24 hours.
Reminder: Tryouts are Closed
Parents and family members are not allowed to watch tryouts. This helps players feel relaxed, comfortable, and focused during the evaluation process.
Thank you for your understanding and support. Good luck to all of our Mite players!
