MINOR HOCKEY PROGRAMS

The Novice Program is designed for players between the ages of 5 to 8, and is based on Hockey Canada's Initiation/Novice Program to make children's first contact with hockey a safe and positive experience. It's a structured, learn to play hockey program designed to introduce beginners to the game's basic skills. It enables participants to become contributing members of a team effort, develop self-confidence, and experience a sense of personal achievement. These goals are achieved in an atmosphere of fun and fair play.

The Recreation Program (formerly "House") for players between the ages of 9 to 20, stresses fun hockey and fitness, skill development and teamwork.  Teams in this program include Atom, Pee Wee, Bantam, Midget and Juvenile.  An Atom Development Program (formerly Senior Atom Program) exists to develop players and coaches and provide for an intermediate step into the Competitive Program (Rep), beginning with Pee Wee Rep.  Atom Development itself is not Rep hockey and players are not carded.  There is no "body checking" in the House Program in our Association.

The Competitive Program ("Rep") for players between the ages of 11 to 17, provides opportunities for players who have special talents.  This program gives these players the opportunity to develop to their fullest potential in a safe, positive and fun environment.  The Rep Program includes "body checking".

Our Associations subscribes to the Hockey Canada and British Columbia Amateur Hockey Association Integrated Hockey Policies, and therefore all of our teams are based on integrated registration (male & female), unless indicated as "Female", which means for female players only.  Female players are allowed to register on both a female-only team and an integrated team if they so choose, and providing they are selected following tryouts for Rep teams, however they are required to pay for registration on both teams if they so do register.

Important:

Please note that the actual number of teams in a division is dependant upon the number of players registered in that division, minimum and maximum player requirements as set out in our Association's Policy manual, and the availability of ice times.  Therefore, some teams indicated to the left may not be available each season.
