Captain's Practice
Been reading about captains practice starting. Pardon my ignorance (not you CNT) but when does this normally start? Is there any rules pertaining to when it starts? Why do some start so early and some like Buffalo start later?

I think it depends if they have all the crops harvested yet?HOFam'r wrote:Been reading about captains practice starting. Pardon my ignorance (not you CNT) but when does this normally start?

I don't think there are any rules about when they can start.
I know that in the past, the coaches could not be present, or even in the building will the players were there. I've heard that rule has changed, but I'm not sure about that. My kid has been skating at captains practice (no Famer, not for River Lakes, crops are not out yet) for a few weeks.
From the MSHSL by-laws:

Students may participate in Captains Practice provided that salaried or non-salaried school personnel are not involved in any capacity. It is the responsibility of school officials to become aware of the preseason activities in their school district and to insure that the spirit and intent of the League rules are observed.

Pretty much.....but being present and involved are 2 different things the latter is what the intent is...I mean if they happen to be in the building because of another reason what can you do.Goldy Gopher wrote:So pretty much no one affiliated with the school can be present?RLStars wrote:From the MSHSL by-laws:

It's basically saying no coach involvment in the practices or team activities.
I don't think it's been a big problem..

Thanks for the clarification

I think captain's practice is, or should be, becoming a thing of the past.
What need is it really fulfilling with all the other hockey being played prior and up to the start of tryouts.
I know for our HS soccer team the period captain's practice can take place falls in the short 2 week window after club soccer has stopped and before tryouts begin. We tell our players to take the time off and re-energize

Does everyone pay to participate in Captains Practice?Zamman wrote:Both Richfield and AHA have had practices already. AHA has at least one parent there as a representative and he keeps track the time and making sure the kids are in line. Richfield has only had one I think, but they looked pretty good. A good turnout with some good play.

Actually that's what they call it in Rogers, they just limit the level to HS.Reality Check wrote:Why don't they just call it open hockey, where the seniors beat up the underclassmen?
And yes as far as I know each kid pays to skate.
I've never heard of it any other way.....but maybe someone else has heard different.
