Time: 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM
Location: Thornton Community Centre (We will have a table set up near the outdoor park)

Our U18 division with Thornton Minor Hockey is a great way for players to finish off their minor hockey careers—playing with friends in a fun, competitive atmosphere.

Thornton Minor Hockey’s U9 waitlist is open!

U9 is a fantastic entry point for young players to build foundational skills while beginning to experience more structured, game-style play. The season starts on a smaller, modified ice surface to support development and confidence, and transitions to full ice with standard rules in mid-January.
