Brantford Community Hockey League is very excited to launch our new Mini Saints program this season for beginners!

Our NEW BCHL Mini Saints program is designed for beginners just starting out! This introductory program will teach the necessary beginner skills and focus on a positive experience full of fun and excitement.
If the beginner has fun, develops basic skills and builds confidence, there is a better chance they will go on to enjoy hockey for a lifetime!
The goals of this program are:
• To have fun while learning to play hockey and engaging in physical activity.
• To learn the fundamental skills required to advance to Little Saints Learn to Play (4+)
• To develop and refine basic motor patterns.
• To be introduced to the concepts of cooperation and fair play in a group setting.
