Yeah unfortunately in Winnipeg, it’s not about how good you are, it’s about if the coach knows your parents. I’ve seen it way too many times

I hear ya buddy. Could never get out of AA. Bantam age was 6'2 180 and AAA tryouts I got 2 shutouts and after first two rounds of cuts it was only the returning goalie and me left so I thought I was finally gonna make it. They cut me even though I got shutouts in every exhibition game I played and they brought in a goalie from a different area whose dad was friends with the coach. Said screw it, went to Notre Dame Hounds for a year, won provincial championship and named team MVP. Came back to Winnipeg for final year of Midget and tried out for Hawks. I had to beat out two returning goalies and I managed to make the team. By October I was practicing with a MJHL team 3 times a week and by November I was playing games in the MJHL when not playing with the Hawks. Winnipeg hockey is so full of politics and doesn't matter what talent you have at your disposal, if you aren't friends of coaches you aren't going anywhere.

When I played AAA in Wpg (before the city/prov split happened), a player could play for another team if they were cut from one but were still better than most players from another one. So these hoops never needed to be jumped through. Especially with tenders. Back then it was Sharks, Hawks, Monarchs, and Warriors. We travelled to play the Brandon Wheat King's, Portage Terriors, and Kenora Thistles, so I guess they would've been considered the provincial AAA teams even though there was no other options unless you played AA or HS.

Use fake address? Did you pretent to be living up north by Churchill? Interlake I suppose? Well, unfortunately, I think they should not have AAA team but have aa instead, 2022-2023 season they didn't win any games 😢
