Street Hockey Clinics

We're working with the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes to launch a new street hockey program. This is a fun introduction to the sport of hockey inside a YMCA gym for ages 9 - 11.

Program Details

Skills Academy

Our first skills academy is from May 9 to June 27.

What to Expect

A fun few hours learning the game of street hockey at the YMCA, focusing on skill development and fundamentals.

Equipment Needed

As part of their commitment, the Carolina Hurricanes will donate all necessary equipment to ensure every participant has what they need to play.

Spring Skills Academy

Saturdays, May 9 - June 27, ages 9 - 11

Additional Information

The long-term vision is to grow this initiative into a full-fledged league, creating more opportunities for kids to stay active, build skills and develop a love for hockey.

Together, this partnership is focused on growing the game, strengthening the community and creating lasting experiences for young athletes.

The Benefits of Youth Sports

Learning new skills, social interactions and exercise all contribute to a well-rounded child.

Skill Development

Learning to dribble a ball, guard a player, shoot a basket and run the court are examples of new skills kids learn through youth sports. They teach dexterity, motor skills and hand-eye coordination.

Good Sportsmanship

We don’t keep an official score for younger players. We clap for all the goals and always shake hands at the end of every game. Learning to win and lose gracefully is a skill everyone can use.

Teamwork

Learning how to work and get along with others is a part of being on a team. But this skill reaches far beyond the field or court and into the classroom and life.
