Hockey is a fun, friendly activity that offers children between the ages 6-12 an opportunity to make new friends, get physically active, build important skills like hand-eye coordination and strategic thought and create memories that last a lifetime. Hockey is also a great sport for building character, and it gives those involved the opportunity to learn the value of teamwork, sportsmanship, and personal responsibility.
