Pony / 6U

The Pony/6U Program is intended for 5 and 6 year old skaters who have previously participated in a Beginner or Learn to Skate Program. This program emphasizes skating/maneuvering skills, puck handling, passing and team Cross Ice play. This program will prepare the participants for Half Ice game play when they advance to the Empire Red, White & Blue (RWB/Mite 8U) program. Questions about this Program?

Participants in the Pony program should expect to skate twice a week with at least one practice on the weekend. Weekday and weekend practice days will vary based on ice availability.

Games

Skaters in the Pony Program will play in 4 or 5 Jamborees (multiple short games on one day) at rinks in the Rochester area. These Jamborees are organized by EAHC and Webster generally is the host for one Jamboree. Jamborees occur roughly once per month starting in November.

A pair of hockey socks and a jersey are supplied as part of the Registration fee. Participants are required to supply full hockey equipment including a certified hockey helmet with face mask, a neck guard, shoulder pads, elbow pads, hockey gloves, hockey pants, shin guards, single blade hockey skates and an ice hockey stick.
