WELCOME to the 2026/2027 Huron Heat Tryouts! We ask that you please read through all tryout information carefully before attending.

The Huron Heat Female Hockey Association (HHFHA) endorses and promotes the idea that all interested players begin tryouts at the highest level of competition. One of the primary objectives of the HHFHA is to encourage players to compete at the appropriate level of competition to maximize their development both as players and individuals. Meeting this objective will enable the association and its members to put forth competitive teams for all levels of play.

AA tryouts will begin on April 19. Only players intending to try out for the AA HEAT High Performance team will attend these sessions. For more information on our HEAT High Performance AA Program tryout process and season expectations please review the attached information. We ask all athletes and families signing up for this tryout process to thoroughly understand the financial commitment and expectations prior to the beginning of tryouts. 



LEVEL OF PLAY
It is the Huron Heats goal to provide teams at all skill levels. It is anticipated that the HHFHA will provide at least two, potentially up to 4 teams at each age level for the 2026/2027 season! Levels of play will be decided after tryouts when bench staff and the Executive can determine what level fits the team best. Having said that, we anticipate our most competitive season to date with at least 2 AA teams to begin our Heat High Performance Program.
