The Youth Learn to Play program introduces kids to the fundamentals of hockey in a safe,
structured, and encouraging environment. New players learn how to skate, handle the puck,
pass,
shoot, and understand the basic rules of the game. No previous hockey experience is
required.
Players are grouped by age and readiness so that every child can
progress at a comfortable pace. Certified instructors focus on skating skills, puck control,
coordination, and game awareness. The goal is to build confidence and have fun while
preparing for future participation in house league, travel hockey, or continued skill
development.
Equipment
Full hockey equipment is recommended. If you do not have equipment,
please contact our staff for guidance on rental and purchase options. We can help new
families navigate sizing and fittings.
The Pathway
After completing Youth Learn to Play, players can transition into our
youth hockey programs including skills sessions, clinics, and team play based on individual
readiness.
