Dear Hockey Parent,
ELCOME TO USA HOCKEY.
Whether hockey has been part
of your family for generations or
you're getting ready to step into
a rink for the first time, we're
glad you're here.
Starting something new can
come with a lot of questions. What equipment
does my child need? What should I expect at
the rink? How can I help them have a great
experience? That's exactly why we created
this handbook. We're here to answer those
questions and help make getting started a
little easier.
What makes youth hockey special goes far
beyond learning to skate, pass and shoot.
It's the friendships made in the locker room
and around the rink. It's learning to be a great
teammate, getting back up after a fall and
building the confidence to try something new.
And for parents, it's the chance to share
those moments and watch your child grow,
one shift at a time.
Wherever hockey takes your child, we
hope your family enjoys the experience
and makes memories together that
last long after the final whistle.
Welcome to the hockey family.
We're thrilled to have you
with us.
WELCOME TO
USA HOCKEY
