House League

General Information

The House League is an entry point into the game of hockey. It is targeted at developing the skills of the beginner to the intermediate player to both enjoy the game and eventually progress into the more competitive levels. The focus for the house level is on skating, hockey skills and working as a team. Players are also expected to develop grit, responsibility, teamwork, and leadership qualities through the house hockey program.

PREREQUISITES

Players of different levels enjoy the house program. Our volunteer coaching staff, guided by our league coaching coordinator, ensures that players of all skill levels learn to work as a team and compete together. Once players have learned basic skating and stick skills, they are ready for the house program. As a guideline, we recommend that players complete one of the following:

  • One to two sessions of Learn To Play
  • The 8U (Mites) Program
  • A session of Lil' Preds

WHEN DOES IT START AND FINISH

Session 1:

Begins last week of September and runs until mid-December

Session 2:

Begins first full week of January and runs until mid-March

Where

All practices and games are held at Iceland Sports Complex

Providing balanced teams for games is an important part of the house league. The best way we have found to balance teams and keep the league competitive is to ask parents to be as flexible as possible with practice nights and rate players prior to league play.

COACHES AND MANAGERS

Volunteer coaches, assistant coaches, and managers are the most important elements of having a successful league. If you are interested in filling one of these roles, please let us know.

Coaches work with our House League Coaching Coordinator, Ryan Woosley, to deliver consistent and developmentally appropriate hockey coaching.

Managers assist with scoreboard management, filling out score sheets, and team communications.
