How it works.

The program
Six weeks to league ready
Our six week Adult Learn to Play program gives you the skills to move into an adult hockey league. It wraps up with an official full ice game, complete with coaches, goalies, referees and a scorekeeper.
The coaches
Patient, fun, experienced
Our coaches have years of experience with beginner skaters and new hockey players. Practices are supportive and fun, and you progress at your own pace.
Skating skills
No need to be a pro
Advanced skating is not required. You just need to skate around the rink on your own without falling. We’ll teach you the rest.
Equipment
Full gear required
Skates, shin guards, pants, socks, a jock or jill, gloves, elbow pads, jersey and helmet. Shoulder pads are recommended but not required. Hat Trick Hockey, right in the building, has affordable gear including used equipment and rentals (subject to availability).
Your pathway
Keep playing after
Most players move on to Adult Skills and Drills and then into our adult beginner’s league. Our staff will guide you through the adult pathway so you keep growing at your own pace.

Hear it from players.

This class was worth every minute of my time. In only 6 classes I went from barely being able to stop to now having the confidence to already join a league. The coaches are great and really care about your progress and help you every step of the way. I would recommend this to anyone looking to get started. It is never too late.

Good questions

Do I need full equipment?
Yes. Full hockey equipment is required for safety: skates, shin guards, pants, socks, a jock or jill, gloves, elbow pads, jersey and helmet. Shoulder pads are recommended. Hat Trick Hockey in the building has affordable new and used gear, plus rentals subject to availability.

Is this program coed?

Will I get to play when I finish?

Do I need to be in good shape to start?
No. You do not need to be in peak condition. Hockey is great for fitness and you can progress at your own pace.
