Try this no-cost, low-commitment introduction to ice hockey. No hockey or skating experience is necessary. Find out how much fun playing this athletic, high-energy sport with your friends can be! During the session, you will learn basic skating and stick-handling skills.  By the end, you will have a taste of the hockey experience and will know better if hockey is a sport you want to start playing (we're pretty sure you will!)  Coaching is provided by certified and trained coaches from the Brainerd Amateur Hockey Association.  Protective gear, sticks, and hockey skates will be provided for use during the sessions. Anyone with equipment, skates or sticks are encouraged to bring their own.
