Good evening,

For those who might like a visual on what drills they might expect, SMHA has posted a YouTube Playlist. Our hope is that these nine short drill videos will help visualize various drills used throughout SMHA Competitive Tryouts.

The link above is also embedded near the top of each Competitive Tryout Page as follows:

• U11 AA/A/B
• U13 AA/A/B
• U15 AA/A/B

Thank you, and good luck out there!

Sackville Minor Hockey Association is currently seeking Non-Parent Evaluators for U9 evaluations for the 2026/27 season.

SMHA will provide support and training before and throughout the evaluation process to help ensure you feel confident and prepared.

Thank you for considering participating in this important process and for supporting the development of our young players. We truly appreciate your time and commitment to our hockey community!

Jersey pick up Information:

Please note the following Competitive Tryout Jersey Pickup Times for U11, U13 & U15.

Wednesday, Sept 16, 2026 - 6:30-8:30pm @ Sackville Arena Mezzanine

In keeping with the SMHA Competitive Tryout Policy, requests for a specific jersey number cannot be accommodated. 

A parent or guardian will be required to initial at jersey pick up. If a player's assigned Jersey is not returned at the end of the Competitive Tryout Process or Rec Evaluations, there will be a Jersey Replacement Fee added to the player's account. 

Players released from the Competitive Tryout Process keep the same assigned jersey throughout the Recreation Evaluation process.

Important Notes:

If your player is currently trying out for another team (Rangers, Kings, High School, etc.) and they are registered in SMHA, please make sure you come and pick up your tryout jersey. If you are placed with another team, we will arrange a tryout jersey drop off. 

We will be scheduling a separate Jersey pick up for U9 and U18. 

Recreation Evaluation Jerseys will be given out during the check in process on the first day of evaluations.
