Winthrop wolverines

Beware of the Wolverines! They lurk deep in the snow-covered North Cascade Mountains. They’re tenacious. They’re hardy. And the youngest ones are down-right adorable. The Winthrop Wolverines, that is!

Is your child new to hockey? Maybe they’ve skated with friends at the rink, but haven’t registered in WAHA before. Wolverine Boot Camp is designed for them. Over a 7-week session in the fall, players learn fundamental skills, game play, and the basic rules of the game.
Practices:
Upon completion of Wolverine Boot Camp, players have the option to join their age-appropriate team for the second half of the hockey season, including a chance to play in house games and, depending on skill and safety (at coaches discretion), participate in youth hockey tournaments.
Registration cost is $125 per player for the 7-week session (scholarships available). Gear Rental fee is $50. There is an additional registration/equipment fee for players who graduate to play on a WAHA team. (TBD based on age group.) Visit the team page to learn more.

Please see the WAHA Program Handbook for more detailed information, especially if this is your skater’s first season with our program. It includes important information that all players, guardians, and volunteers are responsible for knowing and adhering to.
