Central Outlaws

Tryout announcement 2019-2020 season

Hello parents and players;

 On behalf of the coaches and the Board of Directors of Central Outlaws we would like to acknowledge the effort put forth by the players during tryouts. It was a successful and positive tryout which has allowed Finger Lakes Regional Hockey to recreate a training platform that will allow players to continue their development within a reconstructed practice and play format.

The previous advertised guidelines of the practice and play schedule will be modified in order to establish a proper training platform that will benefit the player’s development throughout the season. This system has been used for decades of the older divisions and has had huge success and we will now implement within the younger age divisions.

Squirts and Pee Wees will have two travel rosters, both teams will interact weekly with the same coaches and practice schedule throughout the season. Some players will be rostered with both teams to enhance additional playing time on the weekends. Teams will practice together!   (Tuesday: Squirts 5:30-6:30, Pee Wee 6:30-7:30) (Wednesday: Squirts 5:30-6:30, Pee Wees 6:45-7:45) (Thursday:  Squirt team 1 and duel rostered players 5:30-6:30, Pee Wee team 1 6:30-7:30 and duel rostered players) (Friday: 6:30-7:30 Squirt and Pee Wee teams 2 and all duel rostered players). Saturday away games rosters will separate, duel rostered players will be directed of which team they are playing for by head coach, this will change week to week. Sunday home games, Squirt and Pee Wee teams have been given back to back game slots to allow duel rostered players a convenient schedule of participating in both games. (Squirt team 1 9:15) (Squirt team 2 10:30) (Pee Wee Team 1 11:45) (Pee Wee team 2 1:15). If you see a * next to your name you are considered duel rostered for both teams. Players that were not selected for team 1 or 2 are welcome to attend August 10th tryout. No Tryout fee required.  

Bantams, 16u, 18u will also have combined practices and shared rostering. This has been done for years with the older groups, parents and players should be more accustomed to the programs functionality. However, Bantams will not be participating with duel rostering; this team has established a complete roster for the season. Bantams will practice Monday 5:30-6:45, Tuesday 7:45-9:00 with 16/18u and Friday 7:45-9:00 with 16/18u. Bantam home games Saturday 1:00-2:30. Midgets 16/18u will practice Tuesday 7:45-9:00, Friday 7:45-9:00, Saturday 4:15-5:45, Sunday Home games 2:45-4:15. If you see a * next to your name you are considered duel rostered for both midget 16u and 18u.

We the coaches and board of director’s hope this information helps explain the direction of the program and good luck to all teams this season.

Players with * will be duel rostered with team 1

Players with * will be duel rostered with Team 2

Players with * will be duel rostered on 18u team.

USA Hockey has ZERO TOLERANCE for abuse and misconduct

FLRHA prohibits all types of physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, bullying, threats, harassment and hazing, all as described in the USA Hockey SafeSport Handbook.  Participants, coaches, administrators and volunteers in FLRHA may be subject to disciplinary action for violation of these locker room policies or for engaging in any misconduct or abuse or that violates the USA Hockey SafeSport Policies.  

LOCKER ROOM POLICY OVERVIEW 

FLRHA adheres to USA Hockey’s SafeSport Program as a means to help protect its participants from physical abuse, sexual abuse, mental abuse and other types of misconduct (including emotional abuse, bullying, threats, harassment and hazing). FLRHA maintains home ice operations at the following facility; The Rink, C.R.C. The facility offers locker room for players and coaches; some of the locker room facilities have common area restrooms and shower areas. Teams in our Association also regularly travel to play games at other rinks or arenas and those locker rooms, restrooms and shower facilities will vary from location to location.

LOCKER ROOM MONITORING:  FLRHA has limited and predictable use of locker rooms and changing areas (e.g., generally 30-45 minutes before and following practices and games). This allows direct and regular monitoring of locker room areas.  While constant monitoring inside the locker rooms and changing areas might be the most effective way to prevent problems, FLRHA understands that this is not always feasible.  FLRHA works with all the coaches or administrators to assist in creating and maintaining a safe and respectful locker room environment. FLRHA requires that all coaches & administrators that have supervisory responsibilities or access to locker room supervision be safesport certified and have a screening completed.  

·        Parents in Locker Rooms: Except for players at younger age groups, including but not limited to I.P. & Mites, FLRHA discourages parents from entering locker rooms. FLRHA asks that if a player needs assistance from a parent, that assistance occur outside the locker room defined area. Naturally, with the youngest age groups it is necessary for parents to assist the players in getting dressed. FLRHA encourages parents to teach their players as young as possible how to get dressed so that players will learn early how to dress correctly and independently.  In circumstances where parents are allowed in the locker room (which will be indicated solely by coaches), the coaches are permitted to ask the parents to leave for a short time before the game and for a short time after the game so that coaches may address the players. As players get older, the coach may prohibit parents from the locker room.   

·        Mixed Gender Teams: Some FLRHA teams consist of both male & female players.  It is important that the privacy rights of all players are given consideration and appropriate arrangements made. Where possible and if requested, FLRHA will have the male & female players dress/undress in separate locker rooms and then convene in a single locker room before the game or team meeting.  If separate locker rooms are not available, then the players will take turns using the locker room to change (if requested by the player(s) or parent(s). FLRHA understands that these arrangements may require that players arrive earlier or leave later to dress, but that this is the most reasonable way to accommodate and respect all FLRHA players.   

CELL PHONES AND OTHER MOBILE RECORDING DEVICES:  Cell phones and all other mobile devices with recording capabilities, (including, but not limited to, voice recording, still photography, video recording capabilities) are not permitted in the locker rooms.  This policy will be strictly enforced
