All players would be committed to their ice times for those Recreation teams (practices and games), but additional ice times would be scheduled, likely an additional practice time each week (2 practices per week total). Exhibition games would be scheduled against other development teams along with possibly entering development tournaments, but the U11 Development Program would not play in a set development league. There are additional fees to participate in the U11 Development Program.

There are additional fees to play on a U11 Development Team.
