U9 Tryouts


U9 EO Stars Tryouts & Season Registration Information

The East Ottawa (EO) Stars U9 Competitive hockey program is designed with a development first approach. The U9 Stars team will take part in on-ice development and off-ice training. All players selected to the U9 Stars team agree to take part in all team activities - including the mandatory off-ice training.

Players who are rostered with the U9 Stars comp team should anticipate the following costs:

  • Season Registration Fees:
    • U9 EO Stars - $900
    • This is broken into a $720 Initial registration paid by both house and competitive players.  If the player is offered a position on the competitive team after tryouts there will be an additional $180 fee.
  • Team Fees: These are paid directly to the team to cover the parent-approved budget. The team fees range from $800 to $1200 depending on tournament schedules, off-ice development and other team costs.
  • On-Ice Equipment: Players are expected to adhere to the EOGHA on-ice dress code which includes black gloves and helmet. Stars socks are purchased by each individual player.  The jerseys will be provided by the association and must be returned at the end of the season

Tryouts - September 7 to 9, 2025

Each player will receive the following:

 

  • 2 x One hour skill sessions and small area games (formal evaluation)
  • 1 intersquad game (formal evaluation) 
  • Every player must wear a reversible numbered tryout jersey issued by the association.  They are available for purchase through the RAMP registration if a player does not have one

 

Players from other associations:

Players are not eligible to participate in the "rust off" sessions unless they are registered for the season and have been fully transferred to East Ottawa Stars Girls Hockey Association.

Players from other OWHA associations who are not registered for the season will require a Permission to Tryout (PTT) or a release from their home association.   The PTT should be emailed to the compregistrar@gcgh.ca prior to tryouts.

 

 

Tryout Arrival Process:

 Players are asked to arrive at the arena 45 mins in advance of their ice time and check-in at the registration desk.

Upon check-in at the first ice time, players will receive their tryout jersey if a new one was purchased (available in RAMP when registering).   Players who already have a jersey will need to verify their jersey number. Players are expected to wear the dedicated tryout jersey to each ice time.

All players and goalies MUST check in with the East Ottawa Stars desk before going to the locker rooms. Upon check-in they will receive their room assignments and any other information provided by the coach.

All players/goalies are asked to bring their own water bottle, pre-filled.

Above all, our goal is to provide a safe environment for our players, coaches and volunteers. If your player must miss an ice time due to a health related issue, please notify VP Comp and Registrar in advance of the ice time. If your child is absent without communication, they will be deemed withdrawn from tryouts process (unless they have a medical emergency or can provide a reason of their extenuating circumstances) which will then need to be cleared and approved by East Ottawa Girls Hockey President.
