Alpha Hockey

Prerequisite: Pre-Alpha of Learn to Skate

Our Alpha Hockey program is designed for aspiring hockey players looking to take their first step into the game of hockey after completing the Pre-Alpha Level in Learn to Skate. There is a strong emphasis on individual skating skills, while being introduced to wearing hockey equipment. There will be no sticks or pucks, as this level is designed for getting the player comfortable skating in hockey gear. We offer leased hockey equipment for a small deposit fee, that will be returned whenever the equipment is turned back in.
