About Us

Philosophy

The philosophy of the Esko Hockey Association program is, first and foremost, for the players to have fun and enjoy skating and the game of hockey. Mini-Mites, Mite 1’s and 2’s is about participation and creating positive attitudes towards the game of hockey.

Mission Statement

Esko Youth Hockey Association will continually strive to provide a community based, volunteer-driven program to promote participation and development of youth hockey. Esko Hockey will actively work to promote a fun, fair and safe environment for all without regard to experience or ability. We are committed to instilling honesty, teamwork, sportsmanship and self-confidence into each participant.

The mission will be achieved through organizing our dedicated volunteers, coaches, parents and business associates who actively uphold these values.

The primary objective will be to have all the players feel increasingly better about their ability as the season progresses. This should occur not only in the areas of skill, knowledge, and fitness, but should also include qualities of character such as persistence, self-control, tolerance, respect for authority, encouragement of teammates, concentration on the tasks and teamwork.
