Every team will say come to them! We could use some AAA talent.

I would call around and ask for next years schedule. How many practices, goalie coaching, when home games are and see if that aligns with your schedule

There are also a few coaching changes for 25/26. ST & TW for sure. That may mean some openings as players follow current coaches to new teams.

Suggestion 1: Rule out any team with a parent coach - we all know how that ends
Suggestion 2: Stay away from all the mississauga teams - there is always drama (Minus the Beast)
Suggestion 3: Find a coach looking to build a forever group - you can tell who those people are when you meet them. Shortsighted coaches only focus on wins now
Suggestion 4: Stay away from Vaughan - if you thought parent groups were bad in AAA....they might be worse here
Suggestion 5: Go to some skates and let your kid see if he likes the kids on the team he his skating with - some groups make kids feel at home right off the bat...typically by the ones coached by good people....

You can say that about majority of all the teams. Parents will tell other parents what they are doing or not doing and then do the opposite. Not a true statement.lmao

That’s why I will never go to the beast. Coach’s Lie and little Jonny will be gone in a sec. Your word means nothing to the beast organization. Ask the families of the beast that are getting screwed. I’m one of them.
