Sorry to hear that Northendzone. Was your son trying for Major Midget AAA or Minor? The way the numbers work (given how many teams at each level there are and the ages of the players) there are a significant number of kids who play Minor Midget AAA that will not make AA and drop back into community. Look at the roster of most community Midget 1 teams and they are loaded with kids who previously played Minor Midget AAA. As a matter of fact if you did not play Elite level and say (for example) you made Midget 2 in your first year it is pretty tough to move up to Midget 1 for this reason.
Anyway, my 'evals' went well. My daughter is finished minor hockey. Much like me, her tryouts consisted of cutting a cheque to her beer league team and she's on the roster.
