On Saturday, November 3rd, youth hockey associations and rinks throughout Minnesota will be providing youth ages 4-9 with numerous opportunities to try hockey for free. This event is organized on a national platform in a joint effort by USA Hockey, the NHL and its member clubs. Minnesota has over 40 of its local associations taking part in this event to introduce new families to hockey.

USA Hockey provides resources to help put on these events varying from an online registration tool to suggestions on how to get the most families to attend and providing goody bags with jerseys for participants. To register your child or learn more about Try Hockey for Free Day, click here.
