Join a gym for $30 a month and most have a trainer included with membership. I personally don't want a kid on my kids AAA team that isn't worried about the quality of team they are on.

And I don't want someone on my team that only cares about winning. Name of game until kids hit puberty is development and skating. Wins and losses mean nothing. I care about improvement, playing the game as a team, working hard and having fun. If all this happens, then so will wining. I know the team will have talent, but don't want winning at all costs like some of the AAA teams.

Where did I say I only cared about winning? The term was quality. A quality team is playing the game right and being competitive. At Peewee AAA your kid should already be a strong skater and you shouldn't have to worry about just skate, skate, skate. Too many AAA teams shouldn't be AAA but the clubs care about the $ and the parents care about the letter. I hate playing AAA games outshooting a team by 30 and winning by 5+ goals. I'd rather lose by one than win by 5. The AAA teams that my oldest son played against and beat by 5+ are still getting beat by that 6yrs later. If you don't care how good a team is you may fall into the same situation. I have an 06 and 11 both playing AAA and when we moved here from Maine in 2015 I saw the squirt AA teams and decided to go AAA the next year. I did my homework on what AAA club to select. I suggest you do your homework as well.

So, how are tryouts going at Igloo? Just curious if there is enough talent and depth to field AA teams at 12U & 10U. I heard a lot of players left for Hollydell and Pennsauken. Is this true?

40-50 at peewee with time to add some more should be enough for 3 teams
