Player Commitment Expectations
Playing competitive hockey with Crush involves a significant time commitment. Players are expected to attend all scheduled:
- Practices
- On-ice and off-ice development sessions

We ask families to consider this commitment carefully, as player absences affect the entire team.
We are looking forward to another great season and can’t wait to see everyone back on the ice. Thank you for being part of the Crush community.
