With regard to the new Tier I and Tier II PDR (Player Development Requirement) for the upcoming 2016-17 Season, please note the following:

1. For the 2016-17 season only, a player's PDR will count at either their 2014-15 club or their 2015-16 club.

That's great but you're wrong, RT kids will actually count in the 50% as home team players.

[FYC69]

Riptide players are free agents and therefor will count as home player to whatever club they join.

Really good outcome on tonight's skate, fast paste on the pond even with 30+ players. Looking forward to Saturdays skate on the big sheet.
Valencia is looking good for both Midget and Bantams.

My son attended the Valencia skate last night and it was a HUGE turnout. The Midgets and Bantam group looked really good and will only get better with Pavel running the show this season. Again, like I said in a previous post: if your kid played Riptide last season or maybe you are looking for something better than last season for your kid, than Valencia is the spot!

[Pistonkev]

Great turn out everyone but Barry was there. 

[FYC69]

Pre tryout clinics for Midget-Bantam and peewees are now posted under "Announcements". Exiting to see what Saturday brings after last nights successful 3 on 3 skate on the pond. - GO FLYERS!

Thats not what i'm hearing. it might be what Valencia is telling everyone but you should check your facts

Simi was able to show me written proof that Riptide players are ok to play there with pdr.  Flyers did not have the same letter

You are clearly trying to prevent kids from leaving Simi. Why would Simi have the only waiver?

i don't have a concern on people leaving one rink or another i just don't want my son ending up on an ineligible team. This could be my oldest sons last year of real hockey i don't want to waste it.

Hkymom17 (LK).
First you heard and then you saw, quite a busy day for you, You should go where it is best for your son to play, that is all we are doing.
The same rules goes for either club, we at Valencia are focusing on building up great teams for all ages and that is what you should do as well.
Keep this thread positive and help all Riptider's find a new home, Yours might be Mariners but ours is Valencia.
Good luck to your sons last season.

Great turnout on todays skate, over all 60+ skaters in Peewee, Bantam and Midgets. It is exciting to see Valencia ice station coming back to what it once was.
