Learn to Play

The Learn to Play Rebels Program is a learn to skate / initiation program for kids 3 to approximately 14 years of age. Basic skating skills as well as the fundamentals of hockey are taught. Full hockey gear is required. This includes a helmet, shoulder, elbow and knee pads, hockey pants, hockey gloves, a neck guard, mouth guard and hockey skates along with a hockey stick.

The program is held Saturday mornings with 2-3 groups depending on enrollment, from 8:00 am to 11:00 am. The Fall season runs from September through March, lasting approximately 24 weeks.

House Program

Kensington Valley Hockey Association offers a House Hockey Program consisting of the following Divisions: Mini Mite (age 4 thru 6), Mite (age 7 & 8), Squirt (age 9 & 10), PeeWee (age 11 & 12), Bantam (age 13 & 14), and Midget (15 & 16).  Peewee, Bantam, and Midget teams will participate in the Little Caesar's league and does require limited traveling. Approximate Ice time alotted for each division is listed below;

  • 2 hours of ice per week for 26 weeks for Mini Mites, Mites and Squirts
  • 2 hours of ice per week for 26 weeks for PeeWees
  • 3 hours of ice per week for 26 weeks for Bantams
  • 3 hours of ice per week for 26 weeks for Midgets

At the end of the regular season, all teams in each division go into a playoff tournament.

Travel Program

Travel teams are picked by the coaching staff of each respective team. Tryouts are typically held in August of each year and are open to everyone. Travel is intended for the more advanced player.  There is more of a time commitment in travel hockey than house, and is a more competitive league. Each team skates 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 hours per week. Coaches will schedule additional hours for away games and tournaments.

Each skater is responsible for the annual registration fee paid to KVHA. Monthly ice fees are set and collected by each team coach and/or manager and utilized as the team deems necessary. Ice and referee fees are billed to each team by KVHA.
