I was thinking of providing an update on my boy as he gets ready for quadrant tryouts that start for the goalies next Saturday.
my son (an aspiring goalie) is now 14, 6 feet tall and close to 160. since june we have had him working out at athlete factory and during this time he gained 11 lbs (of what appears to be mostly muscle). He was also on the ice on a regular basis since spring hockey ended in mid-june to both play and go for sessions at world pro. Today he finishes a goalie camp and next week he will be on the ice for conditioning camp.
I would like to think that he has a good shot at making at least the AA team - but who knows. He deserves it as he has worked out pretty hard this summer and I would hate to see how he would react to being cut again.
He made a choice in the spring to go all in for hockey - we chatted about the dangers, but he had his mind made up.
Not very often in life that you hope for a bill for $5k - but sometimes.....
