What you need to know for your first day
Congratulations on taking the first of many steps, or should we say strides, in your hockey journey!
Here are a few quick tips to help make your first day fun and exciting!
- Please have your child there 30 minutes early for check in at the Jaguar Desk and to get your equipment.
- If you are using our gear, our staff will start with fitting your helmet first before all other equipment to assure a great fit.
- As a reminder, skates are not included in the Jaguar equipment bag, but there are a limited amount of rental skates available through the Jaguars and Legacy Sports which is located in the lobby with us at Inwood.
Before you registrar with the Jaguars, you will need to register with USA Hockey. There is a $50 fee for children over the age of 6. For any skater under the age of 6, the fee is reduced to $15. This fee provides insurance and coverage for a full year. Simply begin the online registration process here and you will be directed to the USA Hockey website at the appropriate time.
