Sorry for the late notice but u10's practice Tuesday has been rescheduled to a 5pm sheet at elev802. We had a mix up on which teams would be taking the elev802 ice tomorrow. u10 is confirmed for 5pm tomorrow at elev802. Thank you.

Open Skate schedule changes...

Hello u10. We are moving our open skate from Friday evenings to Sundays at 10:40am on the Harrison sheet for the remainder of the season. The skate will be bi-weekly moving forward.

With Phillips ice hockey teams now in season, we've lost access to the Friday ice time. We are also adding all girls scrimmages for our u8 team as the VHL only offers coed games.

For December, we will have an Open Skate for our girls u8, u10, u12 & u14 on December 8th & 22nd at 10:40am on the Harrison sheet. We will start up again on Sunday January 12th and host an open skate every other week through mid March. The AHA calendar will update soon with the proper dates.

Obviously this is an optional ice time, but we encourage all our girls to attend. I understand scheduling conflicts, but it would be great to get as many kids as possible to take advantage of the ice time as it is expensive.

Any questions, let me know. Thanks for trusting Andover Hockey with your daughters hockey experience.

Hello u10!!

Check out the attached flyer for Friday's Merrimack women's hockey game. We are inviting our girls program to attend the game. We will NOT be hosting our usual Friday night open ice in lieu of attending the Merrimack game. Hopefully we can get a good showing.

Friday Open Ice!!

Just a heads up AHA is offering an open sheet of ice for our girls program on Fridays at 6pm throughout the season. Our HSHS as well as u10, u12, and u14 teams are encouraged to attend for pick up hockey. You should see the ice time listed as a "practice" on your family schedules in Crossbar. We tried this last season with great success.

The idea is to let the girls have an hour to skate, play pick up, cross ice, have shooting contests, basically have fun without coaches instruction, think pond hockey. Full equipment is required and we only ask for those attending to include everyone in whatever games materialize. Thank you.

Welcome u10!!!

Hard to believe hockey season starts Tuesday but here we are. Hope everyone had a great summer! Our practice and skills schedule has been uploaded onto the AHA website through Thanksgiving. Middlesex League games have been scheduled for the month of September. You can the access team's calendar via the AHA website and going to the u10 team homepage.

We've mixed up our girls offering this season to include a dedicated weekly skills session. We are very fortunate to have Erika Hammer and Courtney Sheary alternating on Wednesdays. Erika will be focused on skating and edges while Courtney and her team will provide game specific training. If you're not familiar with Courtney, she played at UNH and the Boston Blades, coached at Dartmouth and Boston College. We are lucky to have her involved with our girls program this season.

We will have 1 practice per week, 1 skills session, 1 open skate, and 1 game per weekend. Friday night open skates are designed to provide open ice for pick up games. Practices will be on Tuesday's through Thanksgiving, skills will be on Wednesdays through Thanksgiving, and once parity is over, we will have 1 Middlesex game per weekend.

You're in good hands with coaches Steve Winsor, Scott Corning, Nick McNulty, and Brian Cronin. Welcome to the season and thanks again for skating with Andover Hockey.
