3 on 3 hockey is an exciting fast paced game that is played with three skaters and one goalie on the ice at a time.

Many of the rules are the same as traditional hockey with a few exceptions to speed up the game like - no icing, nonstop play and penalty shots for penalties.

Register for one of six teams (9-12 skaters and 1-2 goalies per team) and play (2) 1-hour games per week. Includes a jersey for all skaters. Game schedules are available at the front desk. You are welcome to register for the team of your choice, however if the teams are unbalanced we reserve the right to move players. Game schedule available July 15th! when: cost:
