Try Hockey For Free All Girls Learn To Play Girls Hockey League

Step 1: Girls Try Hockey For Free

Girls Try Hockey for Free is designed for girls with little or no prior skating experience, open for ages 5-12. These FREE 1-day sessions will take place at our community rink partners in the tri-state area, on select dates leading up to the start of our Junior Rangers Girls Hockey season at each rink. These clinics are run by our Rangers Hockey Development team, and will feature professional female hockey players to teach girls the basics of hockey! These sessions include free rental skates and loaner equipment, and a post-skate meet & greet with our talent onsite. Each clinic is limited to 65 participants and spots are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis. Participants will also be able to register for our All-Girls Learn to Play or Girls Hockey League programs on site!

Step 2: Girls Learn to Play

Getting started in hockey has never been easier or more convenient! This introductory program will teach your child the basic skills of skating, stick-handling, passing, and shooting through ten (10) 1-hour lessons. In addition, your player will learn the importance of hard work, teamwork and sportsmanship. Best of all, your child's registration also includes a FREE brand-new set of head-to-toe CCM hockey equipment, custom fitted by our partners at Pure Hockey. Past participants are welcome to join Learn to Play for another season, or all three! However, you will not receive a set of equipment if you have participated in the program before.

There are currently no Girls Learn to for Play events scheduled.

Step 3: Girls Hockey League

Join the Junior Rangers Girls Hockey League, presented by Chase, a dedicated program designed to increase access, visibility, and participation for girls (ages 8-12) in hockey. This all-girls league provides a supportive and empowering environment for players to build confidence, develop life skills, and grow both on and off the ice.

One practice per week at your home rink
