Novice (D- through D+)

Players at this level are within the first five years of their adult hockey experience. It’s a great launching pad for players who have not played hockey since childhood. A low D player is someone who is on the ice playing organized hockey for the first time. A mid-D player is typically someone who played as a child but not in high school and has been off the ice for a good amount of time. A high level D player is typically someone who has 2+ years of adult experience. This level also may be appropriate for players who have been playing longer as adults but had never played at all until they were adults. The commonality is that players at the novice level are typically working on two to four of the following hockey fundamentals: shooting, passing, skating and body control.

Intermediate (C- through C+)

Players at this skill level typically have some high school hockey experience. They make good passes, shoot reasonably well, have solid puck control, and maintain good body control.

Lower Intermediate (C- and D+)

This is a transitional skill level, bridging the gap between the D and C skill levels so that D players don’t move into the C level before they’re ready. This is not a mix of C and D level players, but rather a combination of high D (D+) and low C (C-) level players. This is a skill level for players who haven’t played hockey since high school and are getting back into the game after some time off the ice. Players at the lower intermediate level are typically working on at least one of the following hockey fundamentals: shooting, passing, skating and body control. This is also a great fit for our older, C-level players, looking to slow down their game.

Upper Intermediate (C+ and B-)

Players at this skill level play are a mid to high C-level and/or lower to mid B-level. This is a mix of both lower B (B-) and higher C (C+) level hockey players, rather than a mix of C and B. Players here can move the puck well, make solid passes, shoot accurately, have a good hockey sense, and are comfortable with a fast moving game. These players typically have solid high school experience and may have played some college club-level hockey. Our senior B-level players who are looking to slow down their game may also find this level to be a good fit.

Mixed Novice/Lower Intermediate (D- through C-)

This is a broad range mixed level offered so that players of differing ability levels who normally might qualify to skate together have the opportunity to do so.

Intermediate players typically have some high school hockey experience. They make good passes, shoot reasonably well, have solid puck control, and maintain good body control.

Advanced players range from those who are younger with solid high school hockey and club hockey experience through those with collegiate experience, or the equivalent. This is a faster game for more advanced hockey players.

Mixed Open Level

This is a broad range mixed level offered so that players of any differing ability level who normally might qualify to skate together have the opportunity to do so.

Advanced (B- through B+)

Players at this level range from those who are younger with solid high school hockey and club hockey experience through those with collegiate experience, or the equivalent. This is a faster game for more advanced hockey players.

Skills Clinics

The sills program is generally geared towards skaters who are jsut strating out through those at the lower intermediate (c-/D+) level. However, our skills clinics can be beneficial to players of all levels. Skills clinics are not a learn-to-play hockey program, but a program for players looking to improve their enjoyment of hockey by further developing their fundamentals (shooting, passing, stick handling, body control, skating).
