About Us
The Team
Wouldn't it be great to play with the same guys year after year? Each year 5 to 7 NEW players are added to the roster as the senior players "age-out". The Select is made up of players from 13 to 18 years old. We've been around since 2008 and we're not planning on going anywhere! Contact us today and find out how you can become part of our team.
The Season
Our training is both on and off ice each week throughout the year and in the summer. The team participates in up to 4 out-of-town tournaments. With a 25-player roster each player will usually participate in three tournaments. Additionally, the team also plays in the local, highly skilled Summer Hockey League - SHL. There are 16 weekly games played from mid-April to end-July.
The Plan
The Pirates Select offers a mentorship program which seeks to develop a well-rounded athlete. This includes character development while improving technical skills and hockey knowledge. Many Select players transition from House League to competitive leagues through our developmental program, with most of them continuing to train with the Select in the summers.

Parent feedback
"I keep telling my husband that I wish we knew about your program earlier. You are building a wonderful hockey community and have put something very special together! I can see how my son has thrived in just this short time - so I can only imagine how kids who have been in longer have benefited. Lessons for life:)"
"I meant to follow up yesterday after practice and say thank you for having my son out. I watched the practice and really liked the drills and effort you put the skaters through. Afterwards, he said he had a good time and commented on the fact he hasn't skated so hard in awhile, and it's true! My son is looking forward to next weeks session - thanks again."
"This is great news — we’re really excited for our son to move forward as a prospect with the Pirates. Thanks very much for your time and consideration of him for the team. We’re looking forward to the upcoming sessions."
