Carding Information
The carding deadline is set by BC Hockey. All players must be carded on or before this date. The roster is not final until this date has passed.
Equipment Ordering
Equipment and apparel orders are placed once the team has been selected or the carding deadline has passed.
Hockey Gloves, Pant shells and bags are ordered 1 year in advance and ship straight from the manufacturer in many cases China. There might be delays which are out of the control of Warrior, the Thompson Blazers and BC hockey.
Workout shorts and shirts will be sized and then ordered shortly after the carding deadline or once the entire team has been selected. They will then be produced and shipped by warrior asap.
Helmet sizing starts after the carding deadline. This year, the sizing will be done by Players Bench and the helmets will be ordered as soon as the entire team has been sized. There might be delays to stock levels but items will ship asap after the carding deadline.
Apparel sizing will start once the entire team has been selected and payment has been received.
Tournament Fees
BC Hockey Fees include $9500 for tournaments for U15, unfortunely this does not cover much more than 1 tournament.

Fees for additional tournaments are

- Hotel $1200/day + taxes
- Meals: $1500/day (estimated based on 3 meals and snacks)
Tournament cost per day (total above): $4300/day with an estimated length of 3 days per tournament that would come to an average cost to $14,000. The parent group will be informed and consulted on any tournaments that the team wishes to attend.
