New youth hockey program prioritizes fun, learning, and accessibility
hockey for all centre has launched a new program for youth hockey players that prioritizes fun and skill development with a consistent and manageable schedule. Winnipeg Jets Rec Hockey Program registration is open now for its inaugural season which runs mid-October to early March.
“hockey for all centre is always trying to find ways to grow the game, and our new Winnipeg Jets Rec Hockey Program is a stress-free commitment for families that provides young hockey players an opportunity to develop their skills in a fun, low-pressure setting,” said David Sattler, general manager of hockey for all centre.
The Winnipeg Jets Rec Hockey Program offers an alternative to the more intensive minor hockey stream on a manageable schedule. Participants will work on their skills in a game environment with a focus on fun and learning without competitive pressures. With both a U7 and U10 age division, the program consists of an hour-long scrimmage once a week on Sunday mornings at Seven Oaks Arena, making the program an easy commitment for families. Participants will be divided up to create equally skilled teams, and each player will have the chance to play a total of 32 games over 16 gamedays. With a focus on gameplay, players can use their own creativity on the ice, and the league is open to youth across Winnipeg, allowing friends to play together regardless of the area they live in. The program wraps up with a jamboree in early March to celebrate the season.
