DESERT HOCKEY DEVELOPMENT

Description

The significant initial equipment investment hockey requires isn’t something to be taken lightly just to "see if my kid likes hockey". We offer opportunities to children and their parents to give what we consider the best sport in the world a try without sacrificing monetarily. For example, we provide a light meal after our free hockey clinics.

Our group was founded by a group of people who came together and worked at the grassroots level to ensure the future of the Coyotes in Glendale. While working on those projects, we saw opportunities to continue working in the community to help satisfy a need for youth outreach through recreation.

The sport of hockey builds teamwork and accountability. We emphasize the character of sports as much as the technical skills, we emphasize that sportsmanship is more than just a word. We stress respect as a core component of being a well rounded player and person.
