2024-25 SEASON TRYOUTS - BANTAM

Augmenting earlier messages about Rye Rangers tryouts, please find the Bantam and Bantam goalies tryout details below:

14U Bantams Birth Years 2010 and 2011: Bantam AA LIAHL Tier 2 National Tournament Bound, a 2nd AA team playing in the LIAHL, both also participating in the AHF League, plus additional travel team(s) competing in the HVHL

Tryout Information

Below you will find information that we hope is useful in explaining the tryout. Please allow ample time for parking and let the parking attendant at Playland know you are there for Rye Ranger tryouts in the rink and parking is free. PLEASE plan on arriving at the rink at least 30 minutes before your first tryout to allow time for registration, payment of tryout fees, and assignment of tryout pinnie. A table will be set up in the lobby of the applicable rink to collect everything and the player will then proceed into the rink.

Each player will be assigned a tryout pinnie that they are to wear for the entire tryout process. Coaches at check-in will let you know whether to wear the blue side or white side of the tryout pinnie.

For sessions labeled with “Group 1”, “Group 2”, or described as “Callbacks”, Rye Rangers will notify you of your assignment, it is not the choice of the player.

Players will be notified of their “group” or “callback” approximately one day in advance of the ice slots below.

Rye Rangers Past, Present & Future on Display

The renewal of the Rye High School-Rye Country Day School varsity hockey rivalry on Jan. 5 was also a significant one for the Rye Rangers Hockey Club.

The game featured 28 former Rye Rangers players (18 on the Rye roster, and 10 on Rye Country Day School). It began with a pre-game ceremony in which Rye Rangers Good Skate Chairman Rocky Shepard awarded the Rye Rangers Scholarship Award to Rye Garnets co-captain Seth Dorfman and RCDS co-captain Ewan Ward.

It included a first-ever in-between periods mini-game featuring our Mite B players.

And it ended in dramatic fashion, with Rye scoring with one second remaining in overtime to win 6-5.  Thanks to Maureen Tsuchida (myryephotos.com) for these incredible pictures.

2023 Good Skate Award Winner

Congratulations to longtime Rye Rangers coach, parent, player, and board member Jeremy Lynch for winning the 2023 Rye Rangers Good Skate Award.

The Good Skate Award was created in 2001 to honor the memory of three Rye Rangers men’s hockey players, Tommy Palazzo, Teddy Maloney, and Ward Haynes, who were lost on 9/11.

The inscription on the Good Skate Award states that it is to be: “Presented annually to the member of the Rye Rangers Hockey Club voted by his/her peers as best epitomizing the human goodness of these special individuals. It shall be forever known as the “Good Skate Award.” Its enduring legacy is to serve as a reminder that we are all better human beings for having shared our lives, both on and off the ice, with these guys.”
