Peters Township Hockey Club

Home of the Pennsylvania "AA" Varsity State Champs 2002,2003,2005

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.

Congratulations All Teams on Great Seasons!  Hope to see you all at the Banquet on April 19th!

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:
