About Us

Nelson Hockey Association is a nonprofit organization dedicated to growing the game of hockey by providing positive, high-quality experiences for players of all ages and skill levels. From a child's very first time on the ice to competitive Tier II travel hockey and adult recreational programs, we are committed to helping every player develop confidence, skills, character, and a lifelong love of the game.

We believe hockey is about more than wins and losses. It is an opportunity to build friendships, develop resilience, learn teamwork, and create lasting memories. Our experienced coaches foster an environment that challenges players to improve while emphasizing sportsmanship, respect, and a genuine passion for hockey.

Nelson Hockey offers a comprehensive pathway for players and families, including:

• Give-It-A-Shot programs for beginners
• Youth Tier II travel hockey
• Adult hockey programs
• Skills clinics and development programs
• Seasonal camps
• Special events and community hockey initiatives

Whether you're lacing up skates for the very first time or striving to compete at the next level, Nelson Hockey is committed to providing a welcoming, supportive community where every player has the opportunity to grow and succeed.
