Parent Information
Hockey is a fun team sport that fosters new friendships, healthy physical activity and life skills that go beyond the ice.
As parents we must all realize that, for kids, positive participation is always more important than excellence. The personal and social development that comes from being part of a team is one of the most enriching experiences offered by the game. We must continue to live the values of fun and fair play, respect, integrity and teamwork with a balanced perspective of expectations and definition of success.
