Good morning MWF families.  Thank you for your cooperation during another successful MWF Competitive Tryout period!

Our Tryout Committee has been busy reviewing all the information gathered during the tryout sessions.  We will be posting divisional placement of players (AAA, AA, A) after 5 pm today (October 13).  As we still have some goalie evaluations to complete, team lists will not be available until after 5 pm tomorrow (October 14).

Should there be any questions regarding the process, we would ask you to first review the Tryout Policy at https://metrowestforce.com/l/68/Metro-West-Force/pages/2045/Tryout-Process/.  If you are unable to find an answer to your specific question, please contact Mike Almond vp@metrowestforce.com.  If you have a complaint regarding the process, please use our Conflict Resolution Process https://metrowestforce.com/l/68/Metro-West-Force/pages/2095/Conflict-Resolution-Policy/ to formally submit your complaint for review and response.

The MWF Executive

Good Day,

Metro West Force would like to provide an update on the current COVID Regulations.

Now that we have all the information from the Province, HNS and our Facilities, we have come to a position where we can allow spectators in to the rinks.

For the purposes of tryouts, we would appreciate if we could limit it to one spectator per player. When in the facilities during tryouts, we would appreciate if spectators can keep distance from our evaluators. We don’t want to have issues with our evaluation process.

***MOST IMPORTANTLY*** When attending ANY facility. Have BOTH: 1. Proof of Vaccination and 2. Valid ID. Without this you will be refused entry without exception.

For our Safety Rep Volunteers (Again, huge thanks along with all of the volunteers), MOST facilities will have security in place who are conducting this for now. Some may not. If you find yourself in a position where Security is facilitating this, you can assist them to speed up the spectator intake. If by chance the facility does not have security, please verify proof of vaccination and ID.  No lists are required to be maintained.

Again, if there are any issues or questions, please contact Tim at riskmanagement@metrowestforce.com 

We have received some questions around the Vaccine Protocols. As stated on the website. On Oct 4^th, Players 13 and up will have to provide proof of 1 Vaccination to participate in Sports as per HNS. This will satisfy Tryouts.

However, Players 13 and up will have until November 9^th to provide proof of FULL (2 doses) Vaccination in order to continue to play. (Into the Hockey Season)

If proof of full vaccination cannot be provided by then. The participant will not be able to continue participating.

This direction is per the HNS Vaccination Policy.

If there are any questions about this, please contact Tim at riskmanagement@metrowestforce.com

Thank you to those who have volunteered over the last few days and coming days! MWF Executives really appreciate your ongoing support!  Just a reminder there are still spots available to volunteer, please sign up HERE

WHAT'S NEW – This year’s MWF tryout jerseys are white and blue reversible; the group lists on the MWF website are updated with the assigned jersey colors for the upcoming inter-squad games. 

REMINDER- All players are to keep their tryout jersey until assigned to their 2021-2022 Season Team, in which the Team Managers will provide future information.

IMPORTANT - Please make sure to be checking the Metro West Force website before arriving at the arena and/or throughout the tryout process for any updates or changes.

Thank you, 

As with all sessions, we do require parent volunteers for covid screening an room monitors.  Please sign up HERE.

Full schedule can be found HERE.

 Firstly, I’d like to say thanks to all who have volunteered to help us in this year’s Try Outs. Without volunteers, this would not be possible. Luckily, it turns out this year won’t be as cumbersome for the safety reps.

I will start with the consistent regulation across the board, and then I will break the rest down per division.

1.     Effective Oct 4^th, every person involved in running and facilitating the session will have to have proof of vaccination verified. MWF will have a list of volunteers, staff and players. You will not need to generate a list. No COVID screening will have to take place. HOWEVER, if people are symptomatic they are to be refused.

2.    U11 Safety Reps  - As the players are too young to receive the vaccination, no action outside of 1 is required.

3.    U13 Safety Reps – 12 year olds have until Dec 31^st to be vaccinated under the Rebound Plan. No action outside of 1 is required.

4.    U15 Safety Reps – In addition to 1. Starting from Oct 4^th going forward, Players will have to provide proof of at least ONE vaccination. If they do not provide proof, they do not enter unless you are advised by Risk Management there is an exception in place.

5.    U 18 Safety Reps - In addition to 1. Starting from Oct 4^th going forward, Players will have to provide proof of at least ONE vaccination. If they do not provide proof, they do not enter unless you are advised by Risk Management there is an exception in place.

SAFETY NOTE: We are not asking you to confront anyone. Advise them of the restriction and verbally advise them that they are not permitted to enter. If persistence happens past this notify facility staff or if a MWF Board Member is present, advise them. We will not ask you to put yourself in an unwanted position.

Any questions, please contact Tim at riskmanagement@metrowestforce.com
