Total Athlete Development Program

The Total Athlete Development Program promotes physical literacy by exposing our youth to a variety of activities that requires them to use different movements.  Our athletes get to consistently develop as hockey players while also exploring a different sport each month. It is important to develop better athletes before better hockey players. This program mirrors the schedule of the school year, operating from September 2022 – June 2023. The program is open to U7 and U9 players. You can get more information at Total Athlete Development.

What We Offer

The Knights of Columbus Hockey Club is built on the principle that hockey should be a fun way for young men and women to develop their skills, build a work ethic, learn sportsmanship and build friendships that can last a lifetime. The program is made up of the city-wide KC Hockey Athletics Club alongside ‘House’ clubs in different areas of the city. KC hockey starts at the initiation level (age 4-6) and has teams at all levels up to midget aged players (15-17 years old).
Hockey is a great game that can start a lifelong passion for the sport at a young age, but it can also be confusing for parents who aren’t familiar with the game or how the leagues are set up in the Edmonton area. The KC ‘Timbits’ Initiation program is specifically designed to help young players learn the game in a supportive atmosphere, and KC accepts registrations from anywhere in Edmonton. For parents who aren’t sure about what kind of equipment they need, we’ve also posted a full equipment guide that will give you all the info you need to get your little player safely on the ice.
At KC, hockey is more than a game. It’s a place where young people can come together to compete and to learn discipline, sportsmanship, the value of hard work and team play — the kind of life lessons that players will take with them off the ice and into the rest of their lives. KC hockey is designed to provide an environment that will help players develop to their full potential, regardless of what level they are currently playing at. And, maybe most importantly, at KC we strive to ensure every player that puts on our jersey has fun, and develops a love of the game that makes us all so proud to be a part of the KC hockey family.
