About Us

How We Got Started
In 2016, The Golden Acres Hockey School was resurrected by a group of local men interested in providing a week long hockey camp for the youth in our community, and beyond, based on the same principles of the original school. The current school offers over 2 hours of on-ice hockey instruction combined with off-ice stick handling instruction, team building and leadership activities, dryland training, informative educational seminars and off-ice games each day.
