Our Kids Play Hockey The Ride to The Rink - How to Prepare and Perform Your Best for Tryouts and Evaluations
Tryout season is here, and whether you’re heading to the rink feeling confident or battling nerves, we’re here to help you approach it with the right mindset. In this episode of The Ride to the Rink, Lee, Mike, and Sherry break down what you can control, what really matters in an evaluation, and how to set yourself up for success—both on and off the ice.

✅ The importance of preparation, from gear checks to pre-tryout routines
✅ What coaches really look for during tryouts
✅ How being a great teammate can make a difference
