Watch your email and see the Calendar on the website for specific team practice dates and times. Your Team Manager will also keep you updated. Mite Tips It is a good idea to have your Mite practice putting on his or her hockey gear prior to practice. Show up 30 minutes before practice to be ready and on the ice in time for practice. In addition to your rental equipment, remember your stick, mouth guard and skates.
