Welcome to the Alberta Female Hockey League!

Second Tryout Process in the AEHL & AFHL

Here is what you need to know if released from your first tryout in the AEHL/AFHL.

Arranging a second tryout in AEHL AAA:

Read the AAA Hockey Model Regulations to determine if you are eligible for a second tryout (Tryout Procedures begin under section 8). If eligible, visit the Male Elite Waiver Form and search through the Host MHA Contacts. Get in touch with contacts of associations in which you are interested in pursuing a second tryout. When a second tryout has been agreed upon, submit the Male Elite Waiver Form. Once approved by all relevant parties, you are free to begin your second tryout.

NOTE: Players released from Calgary AAA Teams are asked to follow the Calgary Second Tryout Processes:
