Who We Are
At the heart of our organization lies a passion for the game of hockey that transcends generations. We are more than just a department; we are a community of dedicated individuals who share a common love for the sport. Our mission is to promote the growth of hockey, nurture talent, and create an environment where players of all ages and skill levels can thrive. The program is nationally recognized and is the major driver of membership at the Club. Dominated by one of the strongest coaching lineups, additional ice times, enhanced skill development, and off-ice training, the NSWC is one of the premium choices for hockey. NSWC Hockey prides itself on offering the most comprehensive hockey development based on LTAD principles for all ages and skill ranges of any association in the world. We work hard to shape teams and players at every level so that they are ready to compete and be successful. Not only is there a focus on skill/athletic development, but also fundamental movements, life-skills, teamwork, confidence, sportsmanship, leadership and respect throughout all ages and levels.
Our History
Our journey began 65 years ago when a group of hockey enthusiasts came together to form a hockey department that would become a pillar of the community. Over the years, we’ve witnessed countless unforgettable moments on the ice, from youth players taking their first steps to NHL prospects honing their skills. Our history is a tapestry of teamwork, dedication, and a commitment to excellence.
Our Values
Passion: Hockey is more than just a sport for us; it’s a way of life. We are fueled by our love for the game, and this passion drives everything we do.
Inclusivity: Hockey is for everyone. We are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment where players of all backgrounds can feel at home.
Development: Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, we believe in continuous improvement. Our coaching staff is dedicated to developing players both on and off the ice.
Community: We are more than a department; we are a hockey family. We value the connections and friendships forged through the sport.
Respect: Respect for the game, opponents, coaches, and teammates is non-negotiable. We instill values of sportsmanship in every player who joins us.
Our Programs
We offer a wide range of programs tailored to suit players of all ages and skill levels:

Senior Men’s League: For adults who love the game, our Men’s Hockey is a recreational league that’s rewarding both on and off the ice. Men’s Hockey is governed by the Minor Hockey Committee, who’s mission it is to maintain a league comprised of balanced and equitable teams, to foster a spirit of competitiveness among members, and to welcome new members into a friendly and enjoyable hockey focused organization.
