Goals and Philosophy To build character in our youth while teaching and promoting ice hockey. To encourage all persons who participate within the club to follow and uphold the ideals of good sportsmanship, honesty, fair play and self improvement. To provide an opportunity for players at the developmental levels to learn the basic skills of ice hockey without an over emphasis on winning. To provide an environment that encourages players to move on to the next level in ice hockey after they graduate from our program.

Contratulations to Rob on his accomplishments and good luck to him in the NCAA Semi-Final game.

After his freshman year at Peters, Hanson left to play in the USHL and then went on to star with fellow Peters alum Christian Minella at Notre Dame. Please join the club in wishing Christian much success in the National Hockey League! Developmental Equipment Checklist - Full hockey equipment is required for all of our developmental players. Equipment can be purchased new from local suppliers KoSports in Canonsburg or Perani's in Greentree. In addition, numerous on-line stores also carry hockey equipment. Of course, the cheapest and best way of outfitting your young hockey player is to borrow/buy some used equipment from older kids that have outgrown their equipment. The following is a list of required equipment:
NHL Bound!!! Congratulations to Matt Clackson on his recent selection by the Philadelphia Flyers in the 2005 NHL draft.
