We will be offering FREE Intro to Hockey sessions at 2 pm during Christmas Break. These sessions are free to anyone aged 13 and under who would like to try hockey. Players only need skates, a stick and a helmet–a bike or ski helmet will suffice. We will have extra sticks and helmets available for use. Please spread the word and help us grow the game.
The following is our pond hockey schedule for the vacation week. We may add additional sessions if ice becomes available.

These sessions are free for all Casco Bay players. All other players must be registered with USA Hockey and must pay $10 to the Zamboni driver before going on the ice. If a non-Casco Bay player fails to pay the $10 fee before going on the ice, they may be barred from future sessions.
Please remember that in all sessions, players 18 years old and younger must wear a helmet with full mask. Adults must wear a helmet, but are strongly encouraged to wear a full mask.
Pee Wee players and older do not need to wear full pads, but a protective cup and shin pads are strongly recommended since saucer passes are allowed (ie soft passes off the ice). Hard passes off the ice are not allowed, but deflections should be expected by all players. Protect your anatomy accordingly. Squirt players (Age 10) and younger must wear full equipment.
We always play pond hockey with no goalies and box goals. Goaltenders should skate out to work on their skating skills and to get bragging rights by dangling their teammates.
