Dear Mr. Beatty;

RE: Humboldt Broncos Fall Camp August 27-29

Thank you for your letter inviting me to your fall tryout camp. I am unable to commit to attending your camp due to a Western Hockey League camp prior commitment. If the situation allows, I would be interested in attending your camp.

I am interested in playing the highest level of hockey possible next year. To this end, I am undergoing a rigorous training program through GDI (Goaltender Development Institute) and will be attending their advanced 3, goaltending school from August 1 to 8.

Thank you for your interest in my hockey endeavors.

Warmest Regards,

 

Blair Robertson

Dear Mr. Mazzoleni,

I am interested in furthering my education in engineering while continuing to play hockey. As your school offers both hockey and engineering I felt that I should write and introduce myself to you. To this end, I have enclosed my player profile. 

At present, I am a goaltender playing Junior “A” hockey with the Powell River Kings in the British Columbia Hockey league (BCHL). 

In June of this year I completed my grade twelve in Saskatchewan and achieved an overall average of 86%. I will be writing my SATs in Powell River this coming January. 

I trust that you and your coaching staff will have an opportunity to review my profile and hopefully be able to see me play. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 604-485-****. 

Sincerely,

 

C. Blair Robertson

Dear Mr. Bennet,

My name is Blair Robertson, and I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself to you and your organization. 

As a student and athlete, I realize that you and your team have a monumental task when it comes to player evaluation and recruitment. It is for this reason that I am contacting you today. It is my goal to have the opportunity to showcase my talents to either your team or it’s affiliates. 

Currently I am 21 years old and playing CIS hockey for the RMC Paladins of the OUA. This will be my second year with the Paladins. Over the years I have always been in the top percentage of goaltenders in any league that I have played in. My teams have always qualified for post season play. 

I hope that you will take the time to look over my resume’, my team’s schedule and visit my website at www.mtngoaltending.com/Blair I hope that you or a representative of your organization will be able to see me play. 

I know that I can be asset to your organization and would relish any opportunity that might showcase my talents. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this letter and I look forward to hearing from you. 

Yours in Hockey,

 

Blair Robertson
