About this organization
Mission
Grow the base of hockey; give kids a positive hockey experience and an opportunity to learn life lessons.
About
Rink Rats Program: The Rink Rats Program is a learn to skate/hockey program for Twin Cities youth with regular, positive activity under the supervision of caring adults. The program engages youth through the sport of hockey, by introducing youth ages 7 to 12 years old to the game of hockey. The Rink Rats Program is a huge step towards, as Herb said it, widening the pyramid. Meaning, the sport of hockey is not considered by many young people because of the over-organization and emphasis on ultra competitive play - especially for inner-city youth. The Herb Brooks Foundation wants to let kids living in the Twin Cities reap the wonderful benefits of playing in a very friendly environment that focuses on the positive development of the youth.
