The game of hockey builds character. Because of the commitment needed to even begin to participate, hockey develops characteristics that carry over into all parts of a player’s life. Perserverence, adaptability, drive, and determination.

The game of hockey teaches life lessons
When you fall…get up and move forward. If someone knocks you down…get up and move forward. If you reach a goal…celebrate. If you fail…try harder. If you are put in a no-win predicament…find a way to win.

The game of hockey teaches life skills
Unlike typical ball sports, hockey requires a person to learn a new way to physically get from Point A to Point B. The moment you lace up the skates you are put into a situation familiar to people who have suffered a debilitating injury or who were born with a birth defect. You are immediately faced with something that must be overcome in order to continue.
We Believe
This game can change your life.
Because of the unique elements of the game; the sheet of ice, the curved stick, the Zamboni, hockey is a whole new world for those that engage in the game. That world can become a refuge, a place to dwell, evolve, and thrive.
