Ice Hockey

Ice Hockey

As part of the Ice Aberdeen programme of activities, you can play Ice Hockey at Linx Ice Arena.

Hockey For All

Hockey For All (HFA) was introduced in Aberdeen to encourage the uptake of ice hockey by young people over the age of 16, who may have always had an interest but no opportunity to join a league playing team. Whilst the minimum age is 16, there is no upper age limit.

HFA is suitable for beginners with basic skating skills. The ability to stop is optional as the barrier will do the job if you can’t! This session is totally non-contact and only open to non-league players.

HFA is run by fully qualified ice hockey coaches. Beginners are also assisted by a number of the better players who attend.

Two sets of loan equipment are available on a first come first served basis.

Sessions: Saturday 16:00-17:15 with additional ice time when available and advised on HFA Aberdeen Facebook page.

Cost:
Ice Hockey Session £10.20
*Limited kit available to hire
