The Los Angeles Kings will hold tryouts for their Chariot Staff, a group of men and women who represent the organization at games and events, from 6-8:30 p.m. Sunday at the Toyota Sports Center in El Segundo.
A main focus of the Chariot Staff is the L.A. Kings Street Knights, a street hockey program tailored toward teaching children the basic skills of hockey at community-based facilities and schools through the donation of equipment, training sessions and manuals.
Those wishing to try out must register by 5 p.m. Friday at lakings.com/tryoutchariot. People trying out must check in between 5 and 5:45 p.m. Sunday.
The tryouts will begin at 6 p.m. with group interviews testing hockey knowledge and public speaking skills. The on-ice portion of the tryout, when hockey ability will be evaluated, will be conducted from 7:30-8:30 p.m.
Everyone trying out must bring a warm-up suit, skates, gloves, a hockey stick and a helmet with a cage or facemask.
More information on the Chariot Staff is available by contacting Lauren Wiedmeier at (310) 535-4439 or by email at lwiedmeier@lakings.com.
