MNP Community & Sport Centre — Hockey

My son, who is 9 and very active, recently joined the hockey program at MNP Community & Sport Centre in Calgary. The program runs weekly, and I appreciate the engaged staff who make sure all the kids feel included, regardless of their skill levels. He particularly enjoyed the drills where they practiced shooting and passing; he even made a new friend during scrimmage time. One downside was the long lines for equipment check-out on the first day, which was a bit frustrating. However, the overall experience has been positive, and he looks forward to each session. The pickup process was smooth, making it easy to get him after practice. I would recommend this hockey program to other parents looking for a fun and active environment for their kids.

My 9-year-old son has been participating in the hockey program at the MNP Community & Sport Centre in Calgary for a few weeks now, and so far, it's been a positive experience. The instructor, Dave, is particularly engaging and makes the practices fun while ensuring the kids learn the essential skills. My son has really enjoyed working on his skating and stick handling. The pickup process is smooth, which is a relief since I’ve heard about complications at other programs. One minor annoyance is that the sessions can get a bit crowded, especially on Saturdays. It can be hard for the kids to find space to practice without bumping into each other. However, the inclusive atmosphere helps kids of varying skill levels feel welcome. Overall, I would recommend this program to parents looking for a supportive environment for their active kids.
