thefelixculpa 0 Report post Posted August 3, 2007 I'd say try out for a PIHA (Professional Inline Hockey Association) team that is near where you move to, get your name out and meet people through that. I am pretty sure that all the teams hold open tryouts for anyone.thepiha.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Allsmokenopancake 0 Report post Posted August 6, 2007 You say you are moving to the US. I think he means what part.Are you moving for work, or are your parents moving. Is it your intent to move wherever there is a good roller team, and get the rest sorted then.Trust me, I'm from Ireland, my wife is from Northern Ireland, you can't just decide "I'm moving" and think you will be here in a matter of months. It took us 6 years to get permanent residence approved, and we were already out here on work visas.If you know what part you are moving to, people will likely be able to guide you better. Also, you say you played on the mens team, does this mean you are under age? If so, what age bracket are you looking to play in.Things like that. Good luck with everything, hope it works out for you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
