Every player starts somewhere. Skating is the skill you use most, so this desk starts at learn-to-skate and keeps drills, video, and parent shows in their own lanes.

Our Kids Play Hockey Podcast
Gear, camps, and leagues when you cannot get the rink-side banter.
Coach Rox's take
Our Kids Play Hockey
This is a wonderful podcast for parents and youth hockey. Born out of the boredom of the pandemic and parents trying to share info when they could no longer banter at the rink (at least that's what it feels like), they discuss various topics like gear, camps, and different teams/leagues for youth hockey. This is an essential podcast for any hockey parents. And it's very entertaining.
