House League (North Halton Girls Hockey Association)

HOUSE LEAGUE

How a player gets that first taste of hockey is crucial. If the beginner has fun, developing some basic skills and building confidence, there is a good chance that player will go on to enjoy hockey for many years. But if a beginner has an unhappy, unrewarding experience, the chances are that he, or she, will quit at an early age and never discover the real joy of Canada's great game. Our house league program has an emphasis on skill development and fun in a safe environment for all of our age groups (U9-U18 and Senior).  Our program provides a positive and rewarding experience for recreational hockey players of all ages and all skill levels.  Come join one of our teams!
