We are excited to announce that registration for our travel programs will open in June!

Our local USA Hockey affiliate, the New York State Amateur Hockey Association (NYSAHA), has modified its rules surrounding tryouts and player signings/registration in an effort to help organizations prepare for the upcoming 2020-2021 season. 

In short, we will have a brief window to sign players to our travel teams without having a tryout. Registration will be open from June 11 - June 30. Any player that is offered and accepts a position on a travel team during this signing period cannot later be cut when (if) tryouts are held at a later date. Likewise, players that sign during this period will remain fully committed to their team for the season and may not tryout for another team at a later time.

If you are interested in playing on a Knights Travel Team in the 2020-2021 season:

1. Email the coach to express your interest starting on Monday, June 1^st, 2020. 
2. All offers will be made by Friday, June 26^th at 5:00pm. 
3. Player commitments must be made by Sunday, June 28^th at 5:00pm.
4. Online registration with the Knights must be completed by Tuesday, June 30^th.

Despite the challenging conditions, many people have been hard at work throughout the spring to make our 52^nd season the best one ever! Big changes are coming to the Knights Organization! Including: some “lit” new uniforms; one of the most prestigious on-ice training programs in North America; and an exciting new partnership for off-ice training programs.

Go Knights!

-The Knights are intending to field 3 midget travel teams:  1 team at the U15/16 level and two teams at the U18 level.

-Based on feedback from parents, coaches, and players, as well as the overall experience from the U16 and U18 league play last season, the U18 midget teams will not play a WNYAHL league schedule this season. Both U18 teams would rather schedule their own games and tournaments outside of an organized league.

-The independent scheduling approach will provide more flexibility on the number and timing of games to better accommodate players that are also managing fall sports, school, employment, and other extra-curricular commitments.

-The 2 U18 teams will have slightly different plans for the season. One team will play approximately 25 games and the other team will play roughly 15 games. The intentional difference in the number of games will allow players with fall commitments to participate on a team that better fits their schedule and budget. 

-The U18 team that will play 25 games will be coached by Mike Burgio. These players will be given the opportunity to practice up to 3 times a week and play in 2-3 games each weekend. Mike can be reached at mjburgio@gmail.com for any further questions. 

-The second U18 team will be coached by Brian Groff. These players will be given the opportunity to practice one or more times per week based on availability, and play 1 to 2 games per weekend. Brian can be reached at briangroff2009@hotmail.com for any further questions. 

- The U15/16 team will be coached by John Storrar. John can be reached at Jstorrar@rochester.rr.com for any further questions.
