Learning How to Skate and Play Hockey

Our Introductory Programs are designed to create a welcoming and fun environment for students of all backgrounds who are brand new to hockey and have no prior skating experience. All new registrants will participate in our 8-week beginner program that prepares students to take their first steps on the ice.

  • Snider coaches will focus on basic skating concepts to improve balance and coordination while introducing foundational Life Skills lessons such as friendship and respect.
  • After learning how to skate, students will be introduced to basic hockey skills while continuing to develop their skating and focusing on important Life Skills lessons such as teamwork and self-esteem.
  • All students in our Introductory Programs will receive free books and educational support in addition to on-ice activities.
