Fall Pre-skates

MHC PRESKATES

The MHC pre-skates are sessions designed to prepare all MHC skaters/goalies for the fall season evaluations. These MHC pre-skates are 3 one-hour sessions that serve as both conditioning as well as a preview of tryouts. These MHC pre-skates are open to 8U (Mites), 10U (Squirt), 12U (Peewee), and 14U (Bantam) MHC skaters and goalies. The MHC pre-skates cost $70 for skaters and $45 for goalies. These MHC pre-skates are not mandatory for evaluations but are recommended. Groups are assigned alphabetically based on the players last name.

Final group assignments will be announced when we get closer to the start of the program.
