Hudson Special Hockey

Hudson Special Hockey is going into its 4th season at HHA. Hudson Special Hockey strives to enrich the lives of athletes with special needs through the game of hockey. The goal is to make hockey accessible to anyone who wants to play the game in an effort to break barriers and promote inclusivity.  This program will introduce players to the fundamentals of hockey including skating, stick handling, shooting, and other hockey skills. There are now over 30 athletes participating in the program!

We are always in need of off-ice helpers for each session. Volunteers will help tie skates, fasten helmets, walk athletes to/from the ice, help get equipment (pushers, sleds, chairs, etc...) on and off the ice.

High school players are strongly encouraged to assist as on-ice helpers. Volunteers will assist athletes on the ice with basic skating skills/drills led by the Hudson Special Hockey coaching staff.
