Or maybe you’re a parent who’s tired of standing on the sidelines and wants in on the action? This class is for you. This “grown-up” class will teach you the basic skating skills that will allow you to comfortably and confidently participate with your children on the ice. Take on a new challenge this winter, get some exercise and have fun doing it in this adult only learning opportunity. (Bike helmets and kneepads are encouraged until you are comfortable and secure with your balance and skill on the ice.)

Hockey Clinic Sundays, Cost $100
- Level 1: 2-3pm
- Level 2: 2:30-3:30pm
This is a Foundations of Hockey program for boys and girls of all ages that want to learn to skate, stick handle, and learn the rules of hockey. We plan to separate into groups based upon skill level with some
overlap to allow opportunities for scrimmaging. As we progress through the season we hope to introduce more competition this year and will meet with interested parents to discuss ideas. We strive to keep our clinic costs low each year because we recognize that there are additional equipment purchases necessary to participate (i.e. helmet, pads, stick, tape, etc.). Be sure to come to the Skate Swap first for equipment and drop off your outgrown equipment for other members!!
Sunday Lesson Dates:
- November: 14, 21
- December: 5, 12, 19
- January: 9, 16, 23, 30
- February: 6th will be held as a placeholder for a make-up class if necessitated by any cancellation
