The Canadian Tire First Shift Hockey Program
If you live in Canada then your kids should play hockey – that is what my husband thinks. If you have kids from 6-10 years old then you should check out this great program.
Mission
Their mission is to change the way hockey is offered to bring 1 million new families into the sport globally over the next 10 years.

How is the Canadian Tire First Shift Different From Other Programs?
The Canadian Tire First Shift is a program designed to ease kids and their families into the sport of hockey in a fun and friendly environment. We begin with a Welcome Event offering information and activities to help build kids’ confidence and make them, and their parents, more comfortable in the hockey environment. There are 6 sessions – one per week on the same day, at the same time to make it convenient for parents to schedule. The focus of the on ice sessions is fun, teaching kids basic skating and fundamental hockey skills through play.
What Will My Child Learn?
Your son or daughter will have fun! In addition, participants will move at their own pace, through fundamental skating and hockey skills. The program runs 6 sessions, which allows kids time to build confidence and improve in order to experience a sense of achievement.
