hey guys. i'm looking to start playing some junior hockey for next season. i graduated high school last year (2011) and i'm attending college in Massachusetts now. the hockey team there is just club and i'm very disappointed in the level of hockey. i tried out, made it, and practiced with them for a week or two before i said "screw em". i started looking around for junior teams in the area and practiced with one team for 2 months on and off but couldn't come up with the money to play full time. try out season is coming up for juniors and i need help on what i need to do. i've made a list of all the teams i want to try out for. should i email coaches saying that i'm interested in their club or just show up on the try out dates? should i put together a recruiting video? i just NEED to get out of this college. hoping junior hockey can get me another shot at a different college.
thanks guys

workout, email coaches, and promote yourself. try out at as many camps as possible. you only have two more years to get noticed so i'd start talking to teams now
i have a list of about 10 teams ranging from tier III b to one from the nahl. i started emailing a few coaches and some are more enthusiastic than others. any workout programs that are more beneficial than others? i'm a pretty scrawny guy, 5 foot 8 inches, 140 pounds.
