The Parkland U18 Rangers held an information session this past Monday at the DMCC Grandstands.
On top of providing players and parents with information on what can be expected ahead of the 2020-2021 season, Tyler Carefoot and Rick Freese were formally introduced as coaches.
22 players came out to the meeting alongside dozens of parents.
"It was absolutely tremendous, a great turnout," said Tyler Carefoot. "There is definitely a lot of buzz when it comes to the Rangers program. There is a lot to be optimistic about."
The meeting included families from Dauphin, Grand Plains, McCreary, and Ste. Rose. Now, Tyler and Rick will continue their Parkland journey as they look to get a sense of what the upcoming season will look like.
They'll be hosting another information meeting tonight for any interested players and parents in Swan River. The meeting will take place at 7:30 p.m. at Legion Park.
"It's just an informal chat to present some facts about the program," said Carefoot. "We lay out all the facts so parents and players know what they're getting into."
After tonight, Carefoot says they will travel up to Roblin and Russell in the very near future.
Tyler says he is very excited for training camp which will take place in late August. Rick and he expect each player to come to camp in extremely good shape as there will certainly be a very good battle for spots on the roster.
