our Programs
overview
Our Learn to Play program is our entry-level program for aspiring hockey players. Players should have successfully completed several learn-to-skate sessions and be ready for the next step in their development before entering learn-to-play, as skating is the most important aspect of the game.
This program will focus on improving all aspects of skating as well as introducing players to basic hockey skills.
**We reserve the right to move a skater back to Learn to Skate if we feel that would be a better fit based upon the ability levels involved.
The Details
- Full hockey equipment and sticks are required
- Neck guards are recommended
- Pucks will be used during these sessions
- Small games will also be played during these sessions
- Program jersey provided to all new skaters
