In order to more effectively track and manage U15 and U18 age players that are attending BC Hockey or Junior team tryouts, we have instituted a U15 and a U18 Tryout Hold Fee.

This $50 non-refundable fee, replaces the $260 tryout fee required to hold your spot in a rep tryout. Players that are trying out or have a commitment to a BC Hockey team or Junior team, but would like to keep their options open at Semiahmoo, are required to register and pay this fee.

Players are then expected to attend a minimum of one tryout skate at Semiahmoo in the fall. Please note, this process does not guarantee that the player has earned a spot on a Semiahmoo rep team.

If the player is released from their other tryout commitment prior to the start of Semiahmoo tryouts they are expected to attend the full Semiahmoo tryout and pay the full $260 rep tryout fee at that point.

Returning players who register on or after May 15 will be billed an additional $100 late fee. (Fee does not apply to the U21 division).

Rep Tryouts are optional. If you declare your intent by registering to tryout, this fee is Non-Refundable. NO EXCEPTIONS
