“The organization was formed to be able to provide a place for physically disabled and learning diabled children to be able to learn and play ice hockey, primarily on long island, in nassau and suffolk counties. The organization's founder has many years of experience working with children as an ice hockey coach. He has achieved a level 4 coaching certification from usa hockey, a national hockey certifying organization. This is the highest level certificate available for youth hockey in the united states. The founder has had experience working with disabled children in the past. Since there is no organization on long island that provides the type of teaching available, he has decided to form this organization so that these services will become available to eligible children on long island.”

“Several dozen physically and learning disabled children were able to participate each week in ice hockey clinics. Also, they were able to play against other similar organizations.”
