About Our Divisions
Lil Howlers (U5)
The Lil Howler program is specifically designed to teach basic skating and hockey skills to introduce 4-year-olds to the game of hockey. This program will introduce kids to the love, joy, and passion that is hockey!
What's Included:
- 20-week Program (One 1-hour Session per week)
- Professional Instruction
- Jerseys provided
- Player Picture Day (cost to parent or guardian)
- Each skater is required to wear full CSA approved hockey equipment, including helmet, mask, mouth and neck guards. Although sticks may not be used early on in the program they could be used later.
- Parents who wish to go on the ice with the child need to contact [email protected] prior to stepping on the ice for all on ice requirements.
Note: If both the league and the player's parents are in agreement, an advanced 4-year old player may be moved into an older Age Group.
U6 and U7 Program
The U6 and U7 season includes 1 practice night a week and 1 game a week, typically on Saturdays but can vary depending on travel. Teams will travel to local arenas for both age groups.
