U9 MD, U9 (Ayr Flames)

Hi Everyone. I just want to thank all the parents in advance and wish good luck to all the players during the tryouts. I know tryouts are a very stressful time for everyone involved and it can take a toll on the kids.  remember to Smile, Cheer, stay positive and most of all have fun and enjoy the experience.  Remember it's just Hockey. Areas of evaluations are: Skating Passing Shooting Effort/Hockey IQ Coachability/Behaviour

Welcome to this season of the Ayr Minor Hockey Association U9MD team.  My name is Dave Kinnaird and I'll be the Head Coach for the 2025-26 season.  This is my 5th year coaching this group and most of you know my style. Fun, skill development, confidence building and Team bonding will be my top priority for the year.  We want to continue to foster the love of the game, while building our hockey skills and creating friendships that last a lifetime.
