Give Hockey a Shot! Introduce your Child to Hockey

Join us Saturday September 9 from 12:50-1:50pm for Winnetka Hockey Club's Give Hockey a Shot program, designed to introduce kids to the great game of hockey!

We'll provide the gear*, the coaching, the ice, and the encouragement. All you need to do is show up! It's a free, safe, and fun way to give the game a try, get exercise, and experience the camaraderie of the rink. 


*a limited supply of hockey helmets are available. Bring a bicycle helmet to ensure your child has well-fitting head protection.
