The Ottawa Valley Silver Seven is pleased to announce the Major Midget program mandate and guidelines for the 2014-2015 season.

Mandate:
 

• The expectation of our major Midget team is for the players to be ambassadors of our tremendous Silver Seven program.
• Players will work hard game in and game out while maintaining a healthy school/hockey life balance.
• Players will enjoy playing hockey for the love of it……at the competitive AA level.

 
Guidelines:
 
In order to achieve the mandate above, the following guidelines will be adhered to:

• Team make up: 16 skaters; 2 goalies
• Practices will be held either Wednesday or Saturday nights (2 days TBC)
• Home games will be held either Wednesday or Saturday night (2 days TBC)
• Team norms such as dress code and pre-game arrival will be relaxed and finalized upon the formation of the team
• School work and exam time will be treated as a top priority and ice time/practices will be adjusted accordingly
• There will be a reduced cost due to less practice ice required - Reduced fee = $1900 to OVSS and a max of $500 in team fees
• Tournaments: a maximum of 2 local and one away; tournaments during exams and Christmas will be avoided

Five Year graduates in good standing from the OVSS program with a year in Midget shall receive a graduate memento - custom engraved Silver Seven watch.
