Good afternoon, families,
Please save the date for the upcoming Infinite Edge & Power tryouts! We are excited to announce that we will be fielding U12–U19 teams for next season. Eligible birth years are 2008–2014.
This year, we will host one in-person tryout in Hailey, ID, along with the option to register for a skills clinic presented in collaboration with Infinite Edge, Power, and Coach Ryan Glantz.
Tryouts: April 18 (morning through afternoon)
If you are unable to attend the in-person tryout for a valid reason, we will offer a video tryout option for a set fee. You may submit your video to our coaching staff for evaluation. If a player does not make a team, they may be offered a position as a practice player.

Jerseys for the 2026 Season
If your player still has their practice and game jerseys from last year, you do not need to purchase a new set. You will receive a reduced program fee unless you choose to order new jerseys.
Please ensure you submit your player’s current jersey number in the registration form.

About the IEP Program
IEP is a development-focused program for girls in the Western region during the off-season. Our mission is to provide high-level competitive training supported by participation in select tournaments.
Our alumni compete at high levels of collegiate hockey, and our program continues to expand across multiple regions. This year, we will have Minnesota-based U16 and U19 All-Star girls teams, which have already completed their selective tryouts, as well as a 2015 Boys IEP team.
As with last season, our final training weekend will feature guest NCAA coaches, creating an exciting environment where players learn from some of the best and leave the ice feeling confident, inspired, and motivated.
