CHCA is hoping to get its YOUTH HOCKEY program running again in the fall, but we can't run it without volunteers!!
We also need to know how many people are interested in our program. Our program is at the Kin Centre 3:45-4:45 Monday -Thursdays. The program is 2 days per week with 2 possible tournaments. The 2 days would be either Monday and Wednesday OR Tuesday and Thursday.
We offer a beginner hockey program for ages 5 - 7 who already know how to skate. You must be able to skate across the rink.
If you are interested in this program please email Cheryl at 
manager@collegeheightsca.org and indicate if you can help coach or if you are just interested in signing your child up. Please indicate what your day preference would be (Mon/Wed or Tues/Thurs). If you can help coach please also indicate if you could be an "on ice coordinator" (This is a possible paid position). If you need more info please indicate that in the email and Cheryl will contact you.
