A QUOTE FROM A PARENT ABOUT THE PROGRAM

"... the Wild coaches were amazing with the first-time skaters – so encouraging, patient and helpful -- they specialized in helping girls that were on the ice for the first time. By the second practice she was feeling better and more comfortable and it was a different story -- she had a blast.  

 
I was even more impressed with how my oldest excelled in all-girl hockey."
