I see the Kings will field 2 12UAA teams and I found the information for Mariners/Shattuck on another California hockey forum called calhockeytalk.com. Apparently that forum will post everything. Looks like they will have a team as well. I also heard their first pre-tryout clinic had a lot of kids.

Why was it taken down here?

because they posted it on all the boards. it should have been posted in Professional Hockey Services. Looks like they got a little butt hurt and went and started their own board to push their new joint venture with Shattucks.
Am I the only one that thinks Shattucks opening a campus in CA makes no sense? The top kids are leaving the state for better competition and less travel and Shattucks wants to open a school in CA to play in CAHA?! The 16 AAA teams are already having problems filling out their teams with AAA talent...so let's add another program. Good luck with that!!!
puckslapper:
Kids aren’t leaving the state for less travel time to games, given that they are leaving for places like Tahoe Hockey Academy which requires more travel time to games, more missed classes, and no local competition. Kids are leaving because rather than sitting on the 405 for hours on end trying to get to a practice, they would rather be on the ice or in the gym developing. Shattuck offers a quality education and a lot of development. Also kids are leaving because of the limited opportunity to actually make one of the three existing AAA teams based on politics and limited space. So I don’t understand why you think another quality hockey program in California is a bad thing. Unless of course you enjoy having to board a plane every time you want to see your kid.
And 805...I have no idea why the administrator of this site keeps pulling the Mariner Shattuck info but you can always check in on the other forum calhockeytalk.com for information on all clubs.
SkatingDad:
If you only care about winning and want a AAA team that can win nationals then yes, there is not enough talent in California. I am with Hamacher in that the AAA teams should not be limited. There can only be one first line, one first line PP, one first line PK on any team. The point of AAA is to be be noticed by Junior scouts and play Juniors not win a national title. It does not matter if a AAA team is contending for a national title or mid/back of the pack, there are good players on every AAA team that will be noticed by scouts. If CAHA does not change their ways soon, I hope organizations start going around CAHA and only play in AAA leagues. Who cares about playing other California teams anyway...

Pretty odd....just curious, anybody have any idea who the admin(s) are for this discussion board? Wondering if it's probably not somebody from CAHA/SCAHA....
Gary Sargent:
I don't think a CAHA SCAHA person would pull the post. There are some posts on here that deride those orgs and they are still visible.
