The Hutchinson Hockey Association (HHA) strives to create an environment that encourages creativity, discipline, leadership, sportsmanship and competition, thus building character in all youth who choose to participate.  Our youth are our greatest asset.

The last apparel window is now open until Dec. 17th. Orders are anticipated to be ready the week of January 8th - 14th.

*Styles marked as “LONGER LEAD TIME” in the title are not guaranteed to come before holiday break.

Going forward, each team's schedule can be found by navigating to the HHA homepage, then:

• Select Teams
• Choose Youth (Boys) or Girls
• Then select your Level
• Click a specific team, i.e. Bantam A, 12U B Girls, Squirt B, etc
• Choose VIEW ALL to see beyond the current week
• You can add tags to see multiple teams at the same time

This calendar is the source of truth. Any changes will be reflected on the SportsEngine team calendars.

Once all players are on a rostered team, you can use the SportsEngine app for the calendar and team chat. Log in using the same information you used to register your player.

This is an optional 'challenge' to encourage skill development during the off-season!

Timing: May 1- August 31

Categories (# of shots):
2,000-3,999 | 4,000-5,999 | 6,000-7,999 | 8,000-9,999 | 10,000+

Any player from any level can participate in any category! Please encourage your player(s) to make a goal before starting the challenge. There are about 120 days in the challenge to factor a daily average, i.e. 6,000/120 = 50 shots per day.  Any shot counts - wrist shot, slap shot, snap shot, backhand, etc - so mix it up and keep track. A parent must initial the # of shots each day to check in on a regular basis.
