Squirt Tryouts

Squirt tryouts for 2025-2026 will take place on:

• Squirt A Tryouts
• Schedule details TBD

• Squirt B Tryouts 
• ​​​​​​Schedule details TBD

All dates and times are subject to change and all ice times are in Graham 4. Your specific time and rink for the first day of tryouts will be posted to the website one day prior. Your subsequent dates, times will be posted after each tryout day. An email will also be sent.

If a player selects Squirt A tryout and does not make an A team they will automatically be enrolled in the Squirt B tryout. For those not wishing to tryout they will select No Tryout. The player will automatically be placed on a roster at the same level they played the previous season (with the exception of SQA as those players must tryout) or if the player played supermites last year they will be placed on a Squirt C roster. 

Yes. Plus there is no guarantee that your child will play at a higher level of “A” hockey. Some years we have had a few Squirt “B” players bump ahead of some Squirt “A” players from the previous year.

No, those players who played Rochester Squirt “B” last season and want to play Squirt “B” again this season do not have to skate Squirt “B” Tryouts.  Register as "No Tryout" and they will be contacted by their Squirt “B” Coach once tryouts are over, with their team placement.

You can stay at Squirt “C” again this season (register as "No Tryout"); you can tryout at Squirt “B” or you can tryout at Squirt “A”.

Yes, although use good judgment here. If you are unsure, we suggest that you talk to your child’s Squirt Development Coach to get their opinion. We DO NOT recommend letting them try it (skate the tryout) for the experience. We do recommend trying out if you feel your child’s ability is close to the ability of the tryout group. Being out of place in a tryout setting is not a “fun” thing for a kid to have to handle. Try to use your best judgment when assessing what level, if any, your child is going to try out for.
