Learn to Skate

The Saugerties Youth Hockey Association and Kiwanis Ice Arena Learn to Skate Program is a fun filled weekly session for boys and girls ages 4 to 10. The program emphasizes basic skating skills and hockey fundamentals.

**If your child has completed Learn to Skate and is 6 years or older we recommend moving to X-ice**
 
The Learn to Play Hockey cost is $90. All players must also register with USA Hockey and the cost is $30 (except birth year 2005 and after). The sessions are Saturday morning's at 8:15am- 9:15am and the season runs until March.

The program is large and we have a very good coach to skater ratio. Saying that this is not a one on one skating lesson.

For more information about the Learn to Play program please contact Shawn Bodie at sbodie99@yahoo.com.

All players must wear the following equipment:
  • Ice hockey helmet (HECC certified) with facemask
  • Mouth guard
  • Ice hockey skates
  • Shin pads, elbow pads, hockey gloves
Hockey pants and shoulder pads are also highly recommended.
 
There are some helmet and skate rentals are available at the rink, free of charge.  
 
A free hockey jersey will be provided to all players!!
