Intro to Hockey

Young Hockey Player

The Intro to Hockey class is open to beginner skaters ages 7+ with little or no skating experience. A skater will learn basic hockey skating skills to then be ready for Hockey 101. A successful completion of this class will qualify the skater for Hockey 101. If a skater has previous skating experience or was involved in roller hockey this skater may skip Intro to Hockey and go right to Hockey 101. If a skater has a great natural ability and can master all skills on the first day of Intro to Hockey class; this skater may also advance directly to Hockey 101
