There is limited space in this program so register early to avoid disappointment.

As partners we are excited to offer our CUBS who are participating in the Winter Program 4 opportunities to attend an indoor off-ice session! Parents and guardians are encouraged to participate in these indoor off-ice sessions.
Village Kids is excited to be a part of your first experience with hockey! The VK team is offering a fun off-ice program that builds physical skills, social connections and confidence that will carry over from the ice to home, school and playground. Early sport experiences set the foundation to acquire skills that help our children prepare for the rest of their lives. Village Kids is built on a passion to help develop, nurture, and support kids to be the best they can be, both in and out of sport. For additional details -- Click Here
