Another great season of Grand Strand Youth Hockey is just around the corner!

Hockey season will officially begin next week with our annual Season Kick-Off event from 10 a.m. to Noon on Saturday, Jan. 11, 2025.

The event will take place at Market Common Hockey Rink, located at the corner of Crabtree Lane and Emmens Avenue at Grand Park (directions here).

It is open to all players signed up for the spring season, as well as to anyone considering joining one of our leagues or Learn to Play program this spring.

This event marks the start of our Spring 2025 season with an open skate, a hockey gear swap and informational sessions for parents in our leagues and our Learn to Play programs.

Kick-Off Event Schedule

10 a.m. - Open Skate & Shootaround

This session is open to anyone interested in playing hockey with us, regardless of age, skill or registration status. Come out and skate, meet our coaches and try hockey. No experience needed. Skates and gear available to be loaned.

11 a.m. - Parents Meeting

Designed for anyone who is new to our program or interested in signing up a skater for spring leagues or Learn to Play. Come meet our coaches and learn more about the program including scheduling, equipment and more.

11 a.m. to 12 p.m. - Evaluation Skate / Scrimmage

This session is run as an "open practice" for new and returning GSYH players. Coaches will split players up into groups based on age and skill level and run through several basic drills, similar to a normal practice. We will spend the last 30-45 minutes scrimmaging in game-like situations to help coaches evaluate players for roster placement.

10 a.m. to 12 p.m. - Hockey Gear Swap

GSYH organizers and volunteers will be on hand to collect donations of gently used hockey gear from the community and will have used gear on hand to trade and/or loan to new and returning players who may be in need or have outgrown their gear.
