What:
We’re planning an 8-week winter league where players will be placed on teams and take part in weekly games, with a fun championship finish. This league will be best suited for players who already show good control with their skating and basic hockey skills. For newer players, we’re also planning a skills-building session focused on continued development. Stay tuned for more details coming in Fall 2026.
Who is Ice Puffins For?
Ice Puffins is for girls who can skate independently and are excited to play hockey—whether they’re brand new to the sport or already have some experience. Players will be grouped based on skill level to ensure a fun and supportive environment for everyone.
Ice Puffins is all about fun, creativity, and fostering a love for the game through engaging games, skill-building activities, and hockey play in a low-pressure setting. Our focus is on confidence, friendships, and enjoyment on the ice!
How We Coach
Each session is led by a team of trained coaches and helpers. We prioritize including female coaches so the girls have positive role models both on and off the ice.
Our programming is shaped by more than a decade of experience in athletic development, along with ongoing research into child psychology, skill development, and how young athletes learn best.
Everything we do is built around two core principles:
Engagement – Creating an environment where kids want to be on the ice
Competence – Helping players experience real success so they build confidence, feel proud of their progress, and become excited to take on new challenges
That’s why our sessions include a mix of guided skill development, games-based learning, and intentional free play. The goal is to help girls build real hockey skills, grow their confidence, make new friends, and leave the rink excited to come back.
What To Expect
With a "fun first" approach to hockey, we aim to ignite a love for the game while building the kids' self-confidence.
