Welcome to the Northern Chautauqua County Youth Hockey Association Website 2008-2009
Our organization, which is now celebrating its twenty-fifth season, is made up of almost 300 players, both girls and boys, participating on 20 different teams in six age divisions and in Junior Varsity and Varsity hockey. We also offer an introduction to hockey where children with little or no skating experience can discover the fun and excitement of hockey. If you and your child might be interested the the Learn to Play Hockey Program ( formerly known as Crossrinks), please contact us. Our home ice is the Steele hall Ice Arena located on the campus of SUNY at Fredonia. This modern, 1100 seat facility, is also the home of the Fredonia State Blue Devils. With the exeption of our two girls' teams which participate in the Great Lakes Girls Hockey League, all our teams are open to both boys and girls. Our focus is on house-league competition and we encourage our players to first have fun. It is in this relaxed, non-competitive environment, that our players learn the basic skills of hockey. Our house divisions include Mosquito (Mini-Mite), Mite, Squirt, Pee-Wee, Bantam and Midget. For those players who are ready for something more, we also have PeeWee, Bantam and Midget Travel teams as well as associated Varsity and Junior Varsity teams representing area High Schools. The Association also chooses Select teams from each house division during the house season. These teams play in three or four tournaments and players get the feel of the travel hockey experience.
