Page 11 of our Governance Document (found in full the Documents section of our League Info page)states the following important information regarding injury exemptions: Players requesting an injury exemption from the tryouts must do so in writing prior to the 1st on-ice session. Where practical, written justification from an attending medical doctor or other medical professional should accompany the written request submitted by the parent. Players injured during the tryout process will be automatically considered for injury exemption. The Operating Committee will review each request individually and if an exemption is granted, place the player in the appropriate position on the ranked list of players. Players requesting an injury exception must have a realistic expectation of returning to play early in the season.
