Youth Rec Hockey

Our goal is to provide a recreational hockey program whose focus is to provide a non-competitive hockey environment for children ages 7-17 to participate in the game. The cost for the program is $125. 

Please note: this program is strictly for youth NOT participating in another hockey program, association or league

Each on ice session will include two parts:
