The Youth Ice Hockey Program at Riverbank State Park offers an affordable introduction to and training in recreational ice hockey in New York City. The season runs early November through mid-March. There are two 90-minute midweek practice sessions for 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U and 18U. Teams are co-ed. Games are played on weekends, and teams often have more than one game per weekend. Coaches provide structured training and drills for all levels of ability in both recreational and competitive hockey. Coaches encourage individual development, teamwork and foster a natural, healthy competitive spirit that comes from within.
Riverbank participates in the Hudson Valley Hockey League and competes against teams across New York City, Westchester, New Jersey and Long Island. Riverbank teams also play friendly, non-league games against clubs throughout the region.
Riverbank hosts the annual Lightning Tournament, and Riverbank teams participate in tournaments throughout the region.
All are welcome! We have a diverse group of participating parents and children who love the sport. The games are exciting for the parents as well as the children. Try out one season of ice hockey at Riverbank State Park to see if your child loves to move and fly over the ice.
