Cloverdale Minor Hockey Association acknowledges that in the City of Surrey we live and play on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Katzie, Kwantlen, Kwikwetlem, Semiahmoo, and Tsawwassen First Nations, and home to the Surrey-Delta Métis Association.

Indigenous Artwork by Jessica Baloc
Jessica is an 19 year old aspiring artist with interior Salish heritage. She lives in the lower mainland and has been drawing and painting for many years. More recently she has been learning and creating art reflecting her Indigenous roots.
In July of 2021, BC Hockey hosted an Indigenous Cultural Workshop, which we were fortunate to be included in. It was a very excellent learning experience and we were excited to bring that information back to our Executive and our Coaching team.
After attending that workshop, BC Hockey invited us to partner with them to create a Indigenous 'Try Hockey' program. We reached out to our usual First Shift partners (Bauer, Hockey Canada, and the Vancouver Canucks), and they were as excited about this as we were. This allowed us to host a program FREE for Indigenous youth to participate, including head-to-toe equipment, supplied by Bauer.
We are THRILLED to offer this program again this season!!
If you are interested in volunteering with or otherwise supporting this program, please email our Program Coordinator at pastpresident@cloverdaleminorhockey.com

What's Next?
Minor Hockey does not start until September, so there are a few months to wait until that starts up.
We are hosting a Second Shift Program that will run:
Saturdays April 5th to May 10th - at 11:45AM
This will provide 6 additional skates, expanding on what the participants have already learned. The cost is $65 per participant.
This program is limited to 50 participants, but we also have another Learn to Play session offered at 1PM on the same dates for kids aged 9-14, which will have 10 spaces in it.
Players who are still in the 'learning to skate' phase are welcome to register and request to be put into that program, so that may allow us to accommodate 60 participants in total.
Other Options:
City of Surrey - offers Skating Lessons, Fun Hockey and Drop In Hockey at a very reasonable price:

Programs are offered at the various rinks around the City, and a variety of times, so that also makes it easier on parents to choose a program closer to your home. They also usually run a 'Power Play' league during the normal hockey season, if you are looking for a lower commitment level program in the Fall.
Excellent Ice (Surrey) and NHTC (Langley) are private facilities that also offer good programs.
