Learn To Skate / Play

Development Programs

LAKES REGION YOUTH HOCKEY provides programs for your most inexperienced and youngest players.

Never skated before? Our Learn to Skate program is where to begin.

Skated and ready for full pads and some hockey play? Our Learn to Play program is available. This level is often referred to as Mini-Mites, or 6U.  We call it Learn to Play Mites.

Equipment

While full hockey gear is not required, it is recommended, as these athletes tend, at least at first, to spend some quality time on the ice.  The league has a generous supply of gear to lend out for the Learn to Skate season.  Our In-House Coordinator would be happy to assist you with this.
