What is a Women’s C Team?
According to the 2010-2011 USA Hockey Annual Guide, a Women’s
C Team is defined as:
“This category is for established teams. In the case of national
tournament-bound teams, players may not be current or past
Olympic or National Team players. Current or former college
Division I, II or III players may not play in this classification.
Restricted to legal U.S. residents. Under special circumstances
players may submit a written request prior to December 31 of the
current playing year for a one-year waiver to their Girls’/Women’s
Section Representative for waiver committee review to play in this
classification in accordance with registration guidelines.” (p. 130)
How is the team selected?
Team CAHA hosts annual tryouts where three independent
evaluators and the head coach will assess players and goalies. After
the tryouts the top 9 forwards, 6 defense, and 2 goalies will be
selected to represent the Carolinas for the upcoming season.
