Tryouts are coming up and I want to
introduce myself, my philosophy and expectations for the upcoming season.
My name is Simon Laprade, and I am honored to introduce
myself as the new Head Coach for the U11 Petawawa Patriots for the upcoming
season. As we prepare for what promises to be an exciting year of hockey, I am
thrilled to invite you to the tryouts for our competitive minor hockey team. Our
tryouts are designed to evaluate players' skills, athleticism, and fit within
our team’s dynamic. We will focus on various aspects of the game, including
skating, puck handling, and teamwork.
My coaching philosophy emphasizes development, discipline,
and a strong work ethic, and I am committed to creating an environment where
players can excel and grow both individually and as a team. I believe that
every player has unique strengths to offer, and I am excited to see the talent
and potential that each participant brings to the ice. Please ensure that
players come prepared with their own equipment, and don’t forget to bring a
positive attitude and a willingness to compete.
If you have any questions regarding the tryouts or the
upcoming season, please feel free to contact GPMHA. Additionally, you can visit
our team’s website for more information and updates.
Thank you for your interest and I look forward to meeting
you and witnessing the impressive skills and enthusiasm that will contribute to
a successful season.
Best regards,
Simon Laprade
Head Coach U11
