Hockey brings kids and communities together. It's about grabbing a stick, making some friends, memories that last a lifetime and... FUN!!! To kick off this Registration Season, we're welcoming everyone to the fun and friendship of hockey!

Let's drop the puck!

Are you and your child excited to try hockey, but aren't sure how to get started? You've come to the right place! Helping new players start hockey is one of our priorities, each and every year!

FAQs

Registration regularly includes one game and one practice per week, so families can expect a minimum of 24 ice sessions over the course of a season. (This may vary, so please contact us for details.)

As with most sports, kids' hockey is different than the professional game you may watch on television. Our association is committed to keeping your child safe. We do this by having:

  • strict rules for equipment and behaviour,
  • a strong emphasis on teaching skills over contact,
  • no bodychecking allowed until the U14 level,
  • the option of no bodychecking in the higher age levels,
  • trained game officials who enforce league rules,
  • certified coaches and trainers for every team.

We believe hockey is a sport for life, where positive team experiences are always the priority.

Costs aren't as high as you think. We have a basic registration fee which includes a standard level of programming. Additional activity may involve extra fees on a user-pay basis.
To make sure we keep our players safe, we require you to provide all the items shown in the picture below. It's important that your child's equipment be in good condition, comfortable, and properly fitted in order to avoid injury. Our association can offer help where needed to make sure your child is equipped to play
Yes, they can! Whatever level of experience your child has, they are welcome. We offer extra skill sessions, including skating for newer players. This is especially helpful for those who may be starting at an older age than some of their peers did. Skating is a core skill that hockey players will carry with them for a lifetime. We're here to help your child develop this key part of the game.
Players who are new to hockey will be required to submit their full name, birth certificate, and proof of residential address. If this is the first time you are registering your child in hockey, you (the parent or guardian) will need to complete a simple, but important, respect program after registration.
Basic registration includes standard programming: usually one practice and one game per week, a hockey jersey and hockey socks. (This may vary, so please contact us for details.)
