JR ICE CATS

2024-2025 Jr. Ice Cats

This learn to play hockey program is designed to reinforce skill development but focused on fun!  While skating elements will be incorporated into most sessions, this is not a learn to skate program.  Coached by Sadie Wright, former UNH Women’s Hockey All-American and other Oyster River Youth Hockey coaches.  The approach is to simply develop the natural love of playing hockey with friends. This program centers around kids learning the FUNdamentals of hockey through interactive drills such as obstacle courses, small-sided hockey games and relay races among teammates.  All players will receive a practice uniform.  Full pads (non-goalie) are required for all players.  Come and give hockey a try with us!
