Special Hockey

Special Hockey

The Alaska Avalanche Special Hockey Team is an inclusive hockey program for players with intellectual or developmental disabilities of all ages. 

The goal of Special Hockey is to give people with intellectual and developmental disabilities the chance to play the sport of ice hockey in an environment which is adapted to their level of ability. Special Hockey emphasizes players to have fun through teamwork, social interaction, and improving their quality of life.  The team is made up ages and levels of experience. We train on the basics of skating, puck handling, shooting, and scrimmaging weekly (during the season).
