    The Philadelphia Growl Tryouts

    My fellow IHC Members,

    I am pleased to announce that the Growl will be holding a free open tryout on Saturday September 6th, 2008 from 12-2pm at Choice Inline (formerly Skaters Choice). Registration will commence starting 11am. The Growl is looking to fill 10 spots on their minor league and a handful on their pro team.

    Address: 150 Hollydell Drive
    Sewell, NJ 08080

    Please forward any questions to myself @ [email protected].

    Thanks and look forward to seeing a good turnout.

    Cheers,
    Mark

    Nope, we are starting a new league, thought there weren't enough choices so we are starting our own league..............that should help the sport out some.

    You guys aren't playing out of the SkateZone anymore? Or are you just holding tryouts at Skaters Choice?

    No, we have left the SkateZone. They were impossible to deal with, the rink was way small with no room for fans and the place was falling apart and not clean or well maintained. Skaters is a great rink, with a OUTSTANDING owner. The Cougars program out of there is good as well. All in all the entire Growl organization is looking forward to our new home.

    Nope, we are starting our own league. We have decided to go in a different direction and believe people will follow us. We are also going to change the rules a bit, with 3 on 3 play, no checking, except you are allowed to hit the goalies........why you ask? Because goalies are so friggin nuts that perhaps a few hits to the head will knock back to normality.

    Yeah, I'm familiar with both facilities and your comments about them (good and bad) are pretty accurate. You guys made the right choice by moving. Good luck to you in the upcoming season.

    Definitely a good move to Skater's Choice.

    Used to play out of there with the NJ Riot.

    Can't beat the Italian restaurant next door, either.
