SPYHA provides a variety of programs from initiation to competitive travel teams. Children interested in learning to play hockey should first have basic skating skills. SPYHA's introduction to hockey begins with our ADM program. We also sponsor travel teams at the Squirt (9 &10), Pee Wee (11 & 12), Bantam (13 & 14), Midget U16 (15 & 16), and High School 2 (Grades 9-12). Most players begin hockey at age 5 or 6. We do allow skaters as young as 4 years old, provided they have basic skating skills. Beginners start with the ADM program. Players progress through the program by mastering skills as required by USA Hockey. It is important to remember that each player progresses at a different rate. Automatic advancement doesn’t happen just because of attendance. Another key point to remember is that older players learn faster and advance faster.
