50 Years of Swansea Hockey

The Swansea Hockey Association is the largest not-for-profit outdoor hockey league in North America. The coming 2023/2024 season will be our 50th season. In those 50 years, more than 25,000 boys and girls between the age of 3 and 17 participate in the greatest outdoor league in North America. None of it would be possible without the continuous support of the City of Toronto, Toronto Parks and Recreation, all of the past and present sponsors, and countless hours by the thousands of volunteers.

Braving the Canadian winter, players thrive in an atmosphere of encouragement and fair play. It's a low-key, fun, and safe environment for players and parents to learn to skate, learn hockey, enjoy the sport, and spend time with friends in the outdoors.

Our home rink, located in Swansea's Rennie Park, has been described as a "jewel" in the middle of a big city -- a tie that binds our tightly-knit community together. Overlooking the ice is the David H. Williams Clubhouse which is named after the first president, and one of the founders of the league. The facility is also home to the Swansea Girls Hockey League and the Swansea Figure Skating Association.

We look forward to hearing from you. Feel free to Contact Us.

Learn To Skate

Over the years, perhaps a thousand or more kids have learned to skate with the Swansea Hockey Association. More than a few parents have also seen their skating improve at the same time.

We run a loosely organized instructional program led by volunteers. The children learn, with their parents' assistance, to feel comfortable moving around on the ice. This program runs on Saturday mornings at 11am,12 noon and 1pm.   Children will be assigned to session times based on spots available and age. 

The Learn to Skate program is for ages 3 - 6 and requires skates, kneepads (recommended), and a CSA-approved helmet with a face mask. Swansea Hockey provides a jersey to be worn over the ski jacket. On-ice Parent volunteers are encouraged. All on-ice parent volunteers must wear CSA-approved hockey helmet.

Our Learn to Skate program will begin on Saturday, November 25, 2023 with a check-in to receive the required jersey to wear over their ski jacket. The first time on the ice will be Saturday, December 2, 2023 at your designated time. Our final skate will be Saturday, February 24, 2024. Our year-end banquet will be on Sunday, February 25, 2024.

EMAIL WILL BE SENT OUT MIDDLE OF NOVEMBER TO ALL REGISTERED PLAYERS WITH THE PROGRAM DETAILS AND YOUR CHILD`S SESSION TIME.

The cost of the program for 2023/2024 is $120.00
