o   U9 Advancing

o   U9 Intermediate

o   U9 Development

-       All players registered for U9 can attend balancing; however, if your U9 player DOES NOT wish to participate in balancing and wants to be placed directly on a U9 development team, please email Chris at novice@chbawings.org as soon as possible and we will remove their name from the balancing sessions and assign them to a development team.

-       A preview of the skills sessions that will be used for balancing will take place during Conditioning Camp session #5 (September 21st) and session #6 (September 22nd) for all registered conditioning camp participants.

-       Parents will be permitted to watch U9 balancing sessions as U9 is a developmental league.  Volunteers for check-in and 2 deep roles are still required.  Please reach out to Nicole at secretary@chbawings.orgto volunteer for one of these roles
