Hockey

The mission of FMC Ice Hockey is to increase participation in the sport of ice hockey by focusing our efforts on entry level, developmental and recreational hockey programs that are high quality and affordable with a reasonable time commitment. We have several programs that can benefit young and old, beginner and advanced and everything in between including leagues, tournaments and clinics.

Advancement

FMC Ice Sports is proud to offer hockey programming for all ages and abilities. We believe in providing structured classes that promote education, friendships and a love of hockey. It is very important that all hockey players have a basic knowledge and understanding of ice skating. Beginner hockey players are required to participate in and pass a Learn to Skate course and are suggested to enroll in Pre-Hockey before enrolling in Bruins FUNdamentals Beginner Hockey School.

 

About Learn to Skate

Welcome to the first step of the FMC Ice Sports group program progression. Each Learn to Skate level is designed to teach a specific set of skills geared toward basic movement, coordination and balance on the ice. It is important that the level progression is followed and for skaters to demonstrate skills efficiently to staff before advancing. Instructors will evaluate students and give progress reports to skaters at the end of each season.
