Come and Try for Beginners

Summer hockey is the ideal time to #HaveAGo at hockey as the focus is on having fun while keeping active. The games are half field with 7 players per team, so it’s a great environment for those who are beginning their hockey experience, or for those who are returning to the game after some time away.

Hookin2Hockey and Come & Try programs are available so that you can see what hockey is all about before committing to join a team.
