Registration for youth floor hockey begins on January 23rd.
The YMCA Spring Floor Hockey season is set to “Face off” February 27th and run through April 13th. Floor hockey is a fun way for kids to stay active when the weather outside is unpredictable. We use foam sticks and pucks and every precaution is taken to ensure a fun and safe experience. Sign-ups are on a first-come, first-served basis so don’t delay, get registered today!!
Participants will be placed by age in an appropriate division. All teams are co-ed. Coaches will act as referees in all divisions.
In YMCA Youth Sports, we strive to provide a structured environment emphasizing fun and learning, while teaching sportsmanship and teamwork. In YMCA Youth Sports, every child gets the opportunity to participate equally, regardless of his or her ability. Everyone Plays At The YMCA!
