Merchants Hosting Tryouts

Saturday, 10 August 2013 05:18

It's going to be a re-tooling year for the Norwich Merchants. The Jr. C West Division powerhouse in recent years is set to see some roster turnover entering 2013-14. Team President Ken Gillanders tells Heart FM, "We wish that we had more returning players, but there are quite a few roster spots open...possibly as many as half. We're always eager to see the new talent that's out there." The Merchants are holding a tryout Sunday and Wednesday (Aug. 11th & 14th) from 8-9:30PM. Players need to have the proper paperwork, including an OHA permission to skate form.
