The Anaheim Ducks Learn to Play Hockey program offers first-time hockey players the chance to get on the rink in full hockey equipment for free. All participants will receive instruction on skating and hockey basics

Participants will be provided with an equipment bag, helmet, shin guards, hockey pants, elbow pads, shoulder pads, gloves, stick and jersey to use for the four week session. Equipment sizes are recommended for children ages 4 to 12.

Basic skating skills are strongly recommended to take part in Learn to Play. If your child cannot fall down and get back up unassisted, click here to register for First Strides to get started.
