HHMBA 22U Tryouts
We are happy to announce that Randy Barrett has accepted the position and will be the head coach for Team 1. Randy’s dedication to the program and to Halton Hills in general is long-standing and we are hopefully that Randy will guide the 22u program into the future.
Randy can be reached at: randybarrett7@gmail.com.
In addition, we are also pleased to note that 2025’s head coach Matt McLean is staying close to the program and will help Randy with the team. We are appreciative of Matt’s guidance this past year and happy that he is helping to create some continuity with this important age group.
At this point we still have not determined if we will have a 22uTeam 2 for next year. This will be based on the number of players that sign up and attend tryouts and the availability of coaching resources.
In order to evaluate players and select teams prior to the return to school in the fall we would like to move ahead with tryouts in August again so we wanted to provide you with the details on how this will work.

Offer Process
Shortly after tryouts, the head coach will begin making offers to players. Once an offer is received the player has 24 hours to accept the offer and to pay a non-refundable registration deposit fee of $150. This will offset the spring registration fee which we expect to be in the $500 range but will be determined in the spring once we finalize our budget and get updated pricing from the town.
By paying this fee you are securing your spot on the team for the 2026 season. The remainder will be paid prior to the start of the season. Any player who is extended an offer to join the 22uteam must accept the offer or you will not be eligible to join a22u team 2, if one is created.
If there is a 2nd team then both coaches will finalize offers after the third tryout; however, we may need to add an additional tryout time slot.
