My son has learned how to accept disappointment much better with the help of his coaches. He has learned how to pick himself up and keep going! We will forever appreciate you taking us in with no hockey experience ever. You ensured that my son loves this sport!
My daughter has learned so much. I can't thank the coaches enough! We love coming out every week and watching her improvement!
My Son has in a very short time went from being a non skating hockey fan to a 2-3 day per week hockey fanatic! Every week he continues to improve under the coaches instruction. This program has been a God send to two parents who loved hockey but didn't know enough to help him establish himself in something he loved!
Learn to Play has helped my son's independence and boost his confidence on and off the ice.
Learn to has helped my son gain confidence on the ice. The coaches have been outstanding role-models and have helped my son develop the basic skills necessary to play at the next level. They are always very positive towards the kids.
Learn to play has really helped my son be confident in his skating . The coaches have gone above and beyond to enrich all the kids individually as well as part of the group!
My son has learned so much doing Learn to Play the past 2 years. Monday has become his favorite day of the week! We appreciate the coaches.
Learn to play has been amazing for my son! All of the coaches are so patient and fantastic! Coach Martin took us under his wing when he started since we were brand new! My son's skills and love for Hockey grows each week!
