U7 / FundamentalsRunning from October to February, our fundamental program offers players an opportunity to concentrate on skills and drills, with focus on skating and small area games. This program runs 1hr per week.

U9 Division: As per Hockey Canada requirements, the U9 program starts with half-ice games and then transitions to full ice games mid-January. U9 plays 10 half ice games and 10 full ice games.

U9 to U22 divisions: Ice runs from September to late March or early April and teams play in the Greater Hamilton Girls Hockey League (GHGHL). U11 and up play 20 regular season games, plus playoffs. All divisions play in the final playoff day called “Super Sunday”, which occurs late March or early April. Teams typically have 2 hrs of ice per week, with the majority occurring on weekends for younger ages. Older divisions will have a reduced practice schedule while keeping the game schedule the same due to work and school commitments.
