As Wayne Gretzky once said, โA good hockey player plays where the puck is. A great hockey player plays where the puck is going to be.โ Whether kids are learning to anticipate the puck’s movement or just starting to wobble across the ice, there are chances to learn all around our towns! In addition to local rinks that offer kids’ hockey classes and teams, there are also quite a few traveling teams in the Chicagoland area. Some spots offer classes for kids as young as 3 years old!
