The 8U program is for players with birth years 2015 through 2018. Games are played “cross ice,” which is better for young players, and the focus is on skill development, teamwork and having fun. 

For the 2023-24 season, 8U will practice at Tucker Road Ice Rink (TRIR) on Sundays from 3:00 – 4:45. The cost is $800 for the season. To register for 8U, please use the following link - https://go.teamsnap.com/forms/376114

Tryouts are held each spring for placement on teams. The season runs from August to March. The level of play for each team is determined after tryouts and that determines league, schedule, and national-bound declarations.

Girls Teams can expect 2-3 weekly practices and approximately 2 games on weekends, as well as 3-4 tournaments throughout the season. Most games are played at rinks throughout Northern Virginia, DC and Maryland with some teams traveling routinely to Pennsylvania and New Jersey; tournaments may be farther away.
