House

The SRJHC House program -

The House program is an intermediate hockey program for children 9-17 years of age. The program is designed to help your child grow as a hockey player and develop their skills so they can move on to a travel team if they would like. It is also for families who may not be ready for travel and just want to keep their child playing hockey on a weekly basis. We will continue to work with your child to better enhance their skating, stick handling, passing and shooting skills. The House program works on small area drills and incorporates the entire rink on many of our drills. Players will learn positioning, teamwork and the basic rules of the game so they can reach their personal goals. House is a great place for the player who loves the game and is ready and willing to learn.

What is the difference between Intro to Hockey and the House program?

Intro is just that: an introduction to hockey. It is the starting point for children who already know how to ice skate and are now wanting to play hockey.

The House program requires the player to be able to show the ability to skate forwards, backwards, do crossovers and be able to apply a controlled hockey stop.

In addition to the House program, the SRJHC encourages the children to take advantage of Snoopy’s public skate sessions, as well as their skating program. Information on Snoopy’s Home Ice skating programs can be found here:

Does the house team play games?

The house team will have in-house scrimmages and we try our best to schedule a couple games during the season. Though the House team is not a travel program, some travel between other hockey programs is a possibility. For example, we will try to schedule some games for the team vs other hockey programs in the Bay Area and an exhibition game may take place in a different city. Traveling to another rink will help your child get the experience of being on a travel team and playing in a real game, which can be a lot of fun and help develop their skills even further.
