Women's, Masters, and More
In addition to leagues for youths and adults, we offer a Women's League (females 13+) and a Masters League (men 35+, women 30+). Many participants in these leagues also play in an adult league. We also offer a variety of training clinics, such as power skating, throughout the year.
Women's League
The Women's League is a open to all females aged 13 and over. Women of all skill levels are invited, and many of the players are relatively new to the game.
This league places a high level of emphasis on fun, good-spirited competition and positive social interactions both on the ice and sometimes in the cafe after a game!

Women's League typically offers refereed games and no formal trainings.
