15U Girls Co-op

Team rosters are posted in the PDF below:

We are pleased to partner with Mounds View - Irondale at the 15U level beginning this season!

We are excited about this opportunity because not only do we have great compatibility numbers-wise and chemistry-wise, we are aligned in our ambition and focus on providing an excellent environment for Girls hockey.

As you may recall our Girls program ambition is to field at least two teams at each level. This partnership gives us the opportunity to do that. It is our expectation that this partnership will result in an A-level and a B-level team.

Please find some details below. We will continue to share more as the specifics of the partnership take shape. Please reach out to julie.bustos@gmail.com with questions and comments. We are working hard to make this partnership as beneficial as possible.

Mission

Build a more competitive 15U Girls hockey program in cooperation with one another. We seek to promote player development and teamwork in a positive, supportive, and safe environment.

Identity and Uniforms

The teams will be named Mounds View-Irondale-St. Paul (MVI-STP). We are creating a combined identity and uniform kit. We will not be asking players to purchase new helmets or breezers.

The association will be furnishing home and away jerseys. You will not need to purchase them. The jerseys will need to be returned to the association after the season.

The only uniform element you will need to purchase are socks. Once they are available to order, we will send you a link to do so.

Arenas

We plan to split ice evenly and will play primarily at Highland, Pleasant, SPA, TCO Sports Garden, Shoreview, and Super Rink arenas.

Warmups

• 9/9 @ 7:30pm Drake
• 9/10 @ 12:45pm Drake
• 9/13 @ 7:40pm Super Rink #4
• 9/15 @ 7:30pm Drake

Evaluations

In the past, 15U player evaluations were held after high school tryouts at the beginning of November. We'd like to give out 15U players the opportunity to get on the ice earlier and are having evaluations in September this season:

• 9/18 @ 11:15am Drake
• 9/20 @ 7:30pm Drake
• 9/21 @ 7:40pm Super Rink #4
• 9/22 @ 7:40pm Super Rink #4 (tryout scrimmage)

If your player is offered a spot on their high school team, SPCHA's refund policy applies: all association fees aside from $275 for administrative/ice costs would be refunded. 

Teams will be reshuffled, as needed, after high school tryouts.

There will be two MVI evaluators, two St. Paul evaluators, one non-parent 15U coach evaluator.

Body Contact / Concussion Prevention Clinic (free!)

"The purpose of a body check/contact is to block the progress of the puck carrier by legally getting in their way." -USA Hockey

Just like skating, shooting and passing, contact is a skill. This session, led by Francisco Hockey, is designed to inform, educate and help prevent concussions with player safety as the top priority. Your player will gain confidence using their body on the ice.

This clinic is exclusively for our MVI-STP 15Us.

• Sunday 10/9 Shoreview Ice Arena
• 6:50PM: Off-ice classroom training
• 7:50-9:50pm: On-ice training
• No registration is necessary. Please be at the arena by 6:50PM.

Outside Skills Development

We are working with Os for skaters and PGD and MEGA for goalies.
