Arena

The arena is certainly one of the winter hubs in Churchbridge. Home to minor hockey teams, the Old Imps, CanSkate and of course our beloved senior Imperials hockey team, between October and March, there is always something happening at the rink.

The rink is truly a community facility whereby much of the operation is volunteer-based.

Minor Hockey

Minor hockey in Churchbridge generally starts in mid-to-late October and concludes by early-to-mid March. Children as young as four or five can join the Initiation Program (formerly pre-novice) team, and stay in the Churchbridge Minor Hockey system until they graduate from high school.

CanSkate

CanSkate, is just that . . . a fun learn-to-skate program for kids, headed by a certified instructor. In 2007-08 we had children as young as 3 years-old striving for their first badge, with some older participants obtaining their sixth and seventh badges and taking part in area competitions. This season concluded with a carnival in early March.
