Our goal with the Travel program is to give our young players the opportunity to take their game to a higher level and compete against the best players in the Nation.
Offering them the experience to be part of a team that:
- Puts the goals of the collective above themselves
- Plays for the love of the game
- Pushes each other to maxmize their talent
We know the sports, school & academic calendars for these kids (especially once in high school) are extremely busy. We are constantly trying to balance, giving enough opportunities to play, develop and be seen by potential College Recruiters against time at home for other commitments.
However we want to be clear, playing travel hockey is a significant commitment in both time and expense. If college recruitment is your daughters’ goal then we can offer a very good track record and increasing opportunities for the girls who get selected in our u16 & u19 teams.
Two pathways to playing in college and beyond.
Selection will be based on performance in 22/23 and/or the
Tryouts on:
August 13th: 9am - 12pm, Fort Worth Country Day School

Players are invited or can choose to join our SELECT seasonal program throughout the year and from this group we invite players to attend tournaments.

We will send out invites for each tournament approximately 3 months before each event so that all travel logistics can be organized in plenty of time.

Please email Mare Banholzer if you need to purchase and she will guide you through the options.
There are two options for families:
- Chaperoned: your child will be looked after on arrival at the airport until we land on return.
They will share rooms with other players and coaches will ensure they have transport, food & anything else they need on the trip.
You will need book them a plane ticket on the same flight as the coach coming from your city and we will take care of the rest.
- Family Travel: you can accompany your child on the trip and book all your own travel & accommodation.
Players just need to ensure they are at the field on time!
We are hoping our Winter Season will revert back to Indoor hockey in 2023/24 for first time since the pandemic. We are still confirming venues but assuming we can find locations, this will add one new tournament to our travel schedule.
