The adult Learn to Play program is supported by the National Hockey League (NHL) through regional teams and a great start point to getting into ice hockey as an adult. These free on ice sessions provide baseline drills for skating and puck handling to get you ready joining a ice hockey league.
The audience for this training are enthusiastic adults ready to learn to ice skate and play some hockey.
Going through this program sparked a childhood dream of playing ice hockey, now almost 8 years later (in 2025) here we are.

The program provides free ice time and basic gear for its participants, but there are a lot of gaps regarding information which would be great for participants to learn prior to even getting into the rink.
What time to show up at the rink prior to getting on the ice,
Checklist of things learners should bring to the rink,
What size skates to rent,
How to properly get dressed in hockey gear,
Which hockey stick to grab,
