The NVHA Learn To Skate program introduces children ages 4 and above to the basics of hockey skating including forwards and backwards skating, hockey stops, turns and crossovers.
Instruction is provided by volunteers from the Nonotuck Valley Hockey Association and players from local high school hockey programs.
Participants are required to wear helmets, and elbow pads and knee/shin pads are highly recommended.
The Learn to Skate program begins October 14, running for about 18 sessions in total. The program meets every Saturday morning from 10:20 to 11:00 at Lossone Rink at the Williston-Northampton School in Easthampton.
The cost for the season is $100, due by October 14. Click here for more details on how to register for the Learn to Skate program.
