Whitby Silver Stick®

How To Apply and Qualify to The Whitby Silver Stick

The "AA" & "AAA" Whitby Silver Stick is always held the last weekend in November and coincides with the
American Thanksgiving long weekend. At present, there are 120 teams participating from the USA and Canada.

Silver Stick Tournaments are the most prestigious tournaments in North America and most teams from every league
are eager to enter. For the Whitby Silver Stick, our selection process is outlined below.

North American AAA Minor Atom, Peewee, Bantam & Midget Finals:

All "AAA" classification teams are by invitation only except for the Champions of our Tier I Silver Stick Regional
 in Washington DC. 

Selection is based on the results of their previous year. Teams considered (but not always selected) would have
finished first in their league or won their league championship, such as OMHA champions, GTHL  champions, 
Alliance champions, etc. In some cases, the second place team in that league may be considered and invited 
as well. This assures a very high level of competition every year.

"AA" Minor Atom, Pewee & Bantam Regional Qualifier:

"AA" teams are welcome to apply. Generally, the earliest applications received are the ones who are successful.

"AA" tournament application forms can be obtained from:

Delmer Rints, 109 Palmerston Ave., Whitby  L1N 3E6

If chosen, your team will be emailed an application and you will be asked to complete the application and return
by email.  Typing the names is necessary because the roster is used to cut and paste for our Tournament Program. 
This is very important for a number of reasons.  All games have an announcer, so we use the printed program to 
read names instead of the game sheet which is not nearly as legible and in some cases, not readable at all. No
player wants to hear his name pronounced incorrectly, especially when receiving a trophy.

Teams submitting hand written Applications will be asked to resubmit them typed on the Part 2 Roster Sheet
emailed to the team. Many times, the name is indecipherable and invariably appears wrong in the printed program.
It is best to use lower case  typing. For example: The name "MACDONALD". It is "Macdonald" or Mac Donald"?
