Select 16 – 1992 Birth year

Through USA Hockey sponsored tryouts, The Atlantic District Player Development Program will identify, select and help develop the MOST QUALIFIED PLAYERS in the district at each birth year. Player selected will attend National Player Development Camps which are held at various locations throughout the United States.These camps give players the opportunity to learn and compete at the National Level, while also being exposed to some of the finest coaches in North America.

 

Players who earn the right to participate are required to attend overnight training camps run by the Atlantic District Staff, which serve as a gateway to the National Venues. All camps are held at our central training location The Lawrenceville School.

 

At the 1992 Level, we will select a maximum of a maximum of 18 players (2 goalies, 6 defenseman, 10 forwards) to attend the National 16 Player Development Camp at Rochester, NY. Additionally, we will select 4 alternate players (2D, 2F) to train with the players who have been selected. Those alternates may have the opportunity to fill in for a festival player in the event of injury or other unforeseen events. 

 

It is important to know that this program is not an all-star team. It is five-year development program designed to evaluate and train the finest players in the Atlantic District. The evaluation process is never ending and includes our tryout weekend, as well as regular season games and assorted tournaments.

 

Our cadre of professional coaches is dedicated to providing a challenging and competitive environment which will afford short term enrichment and long-term development for each player who earns the privilege to be a part of the program.

 

Male players born in 1992 who live in the Atlantic District of USA Hockey for the 2007-08 season are welcome to tryout.
