Commitment Policy
During the tryout process, a WGMHA coach can offer players positions on their representative team. This will be done both verbally and through a Letter of Commitment. Parents/Guardians and players are required to sign the Letter of Commitment stating their intention to play for the WGMHA during the upcoming season. Players, and their parents/guardians, will have 24 hours to accept the offered position on the WGMHA team.
If a player commits to a WGMHA representative team and then chooses to request a release to join a different association, they will not be permitted to return to the WGMHA the following season without first requesting permission to attend tryouts. Requesting permission requires emailing the President ([email protected]) prior to registering for tryouts. Included in the email should be an explanation of why the player should be considered for a Woolwich Wild team along with their understanding if they accept a position on a WGMHA team, they will not be permitted a release to another association for that season.
The President will then make a recommendation to the WGMHA Board, which must be approved by the Board prior to the player being permitted to attend WGMHA tryouts.
