8U Girls Team Tryouts
Central Ohio Girls Hockey Association is excited to offer our 8U girls the opportunity to play on an all-girls part time team! These teams are for skilled players selected from a competitive tryout. These teams offer additional opportunities to develop individual hockey skills and grow as team players. COGH will roster one or two 8U teams (depending on interest and number of players) for the 2024-25 hockey season. Teams will play extra games and tournaments in addition to their house hockey schedule and will give the players a taste of the girls team experience!
These teams will be USA Hockey registered teams through our partnership with Columbus Chill Youth Hockey Association (CCYHA). A valid 2024-25 USA Hockey registration number will be required to be on an 8U team.
