(2001-2004 Boys and Girls) - AAAHA offers this program for young “wanna be” hockey players to get a taste of ice hockey without investing in all the equipment. Sessions are designed as creative time to “try out ice skating and get the feel of the puck”-- not as organized instructional or scrimmage time. Two sessions will be offered each year: one in Fall and one in Winter. Each session has nine 50-minute ice times on Saturdays. Unless you are notified by AAAHA that the program is closed, plan to come to the rink 30 minutes before the first scheduled ice time. Players can sign up for this program and Mini-Mites if they would like extra ice time. AAAHA provides league jersey. PLEASE arrive at least 30 minutes early to the first session.
Session 2 – Winter 09 begins Saturday, January 10th, at the Ann Arbor Ice Cube, Olympic Rink

The program provides basic instruction in the fundamentals of skating, stick handling and the necessary hockey skills required for team placement. Players who progress substantially may be placed on a house team during the season if their skills are sufficient and there is room in their division. Ice time is on Saturdays. Full equipment is required. Jerseys and sox will be provided. Players will have nine 80-minute ice times. Players are accepted into the program upon receipt of their completed registration and deposit. Unless you are notified by AAAHA that the program is closed, plan to come to the rink 30 minutes before the first scheduled ice time.

(2001 - 2004 Boys and Girls) This program focuses on building hockey fundamentals; new and non-skaters are welcome. Players are grouped by skill level: novice groups work primarily on skating and puck handling; more advanced groups continue individual skill development and work on building team skills. AAAHA has adopted the USA Hockey Cross Ice Program for the Mini-Mite level. Players practice and play hockey across the width of the ice surface. USA Hockey has shown that by participating in the Cross-Ice Hockey Program, kids increase their enjoyment of hockey and find that their hockey skills are greatly enhanced. Full equipment is required. (See “Equipment”). A jersey, name plaque and socks are provided. Mini-mites usually skate for 50 minutes twice a week, once on Saturdays and one weekday evening. The program begins Saturday, October 4th.
A Mini-Mite parent/player organizational meeting will be held on Thursday, Sept. 25th at 6:00pm at the Ann Arbor Ice Cube. A number of administrative details will be handled. Schedules, jerseys and socks will be distributed. Coaches will discuss the Mini-Mite program and proper fitting of equipment.
