Participating Rinks

For Parents

SKATING ACADEMY IS REQUIRED

This is a hockey skills development class and a stable skating base is required for your child to learn the most and have fun. Please check with Youth Hockey Manager Sheri Hudspeth if there are any questions about this.

TALK TO YOUR INSTRUCTORS:

Feel free to speak with any coaches, directors or the Youth Hockey Manager about any questions you may have regarding next steps, supplemental training, or any general hockey questions.

USA HOCKEY REGISTRATION:

Is FREE as a part of this program and will be issued to you once your host site has completed the necessary registration documents for the NHL. Please DO NOT register for a number on your own as this causes a duplicate record in our system.
