The WHY…

The RoughRiders Hockey Club (youth hockey) has seen consistent growth and retention over the past 3 years. The shift in culture and core values to Community Inclusion, Retention, Long Term Athlete Development, and ‘Creating Leaders Today for Tomorrow!” has seen the club grow from 72 players during the 2017-2018 season to over 250 players during the 2021-2022 winter season. In conjunction, the Club has been able to break down financial barriers for the introduction into hockey through its Try Hockey for Free Days, Instructional Programs, & RR Youth Leagues. The club is looking to further improve it’s ability to provide and expand on their introduction programs and provide more resources to our current players, coaches, and leaders.
