Little Penguins: Learn to Play Hockey 

Get ready to hit the ice! The Winter Little Penguins: Learn to Play Hockey program is bringing the excitement of hockey to Schenley Park Ice Skating Rink, giving young players an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of the game in a fun, welcoming, and supportive environment.

Designed for children ages 5–9, this introductory program helps participants develop essential hockey skills, including skating, stickhandling, passing, and shooting.
