Wild Academy is the place in Widnes to learn and play the fastest, most thrilling team sport in the world and make friends for life. 
 
As a club we are committed to bringing in as many new players as possible in order to give them the best start in their ice hockey journey.
 

We are recruiting at all age groups, from our Under 10 to our Under 18, and welcome any player with a passion for the game.

Different age groups require different levels of ability but when it comes to ice hockey, we believe that the earlier you start, the better!

It is never too late to begin and here is our guide to starting ice hockey and joining the Wild Academy.

 

STEP ONE: LEARN TO SKATE AND PLAY HOCKEY

The club works closely with Planet Ice Widnes to create a Pathway for prospective players.  The first port of call for those who have little to no skating experience is to attend a Hockey Excellence session to have the best start at experiencing the game.  The experienced hockey coaches on the sessions will have teach the fundamentals of skating and moving with the puck.

STEP TWO: JOIN THE TEAM

Experienced players can join the team directly by contacting us via the contact link below. Otherwise, once Hockey Excellence Coaches are confident of your abilities to take part in training safely, you will be invited to be part of the team.
