The Royal City Ball Hockey Experience is defined as:
Playing the game is more than just the score, it’s about getting kids active. It’s about laying the foundation for community, teamwork and collaboration – values that your child will use through their lifetime. We care more about the quality of our programs then our affiliations. The kids and their experience with us, matters most.
"Our son looks forward to his games every week, which is fantastic for him. Thank you for providing a positive sporting environment that he is comfortable playing in. In our experience that's a big accomplishment!"
Just 7% of Canadian children ages 5-11 meet the guideline for 60 minutes daily of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity. Physical activity should not be something that is checked off daily, it should be a way of life.
Our family run business started from our love of sport. Our family has always been an active one and we want to help yours be as well.
Our focus is on the game and how much fun we can make it for the kids and how easy we can make it for parents. We play once or twice a week at set times to a schedule that is set from the start of the season. No travelling other than to our rink. It’s fun, safe and convenient.
We provide a place where kids can grow as athletes, increase their self-esteem and learn the meaning of sportsmanship.
We provide a well-organized, thoughtful and positive program that can easily fit into any family’s life.

Why We’re Different
We believe in being a part of and giving back to our community. We support our children ensuring that they have a safe place to play. Our programs are for everyone – no child will ever be excluded or cut from a team. Every child will play every game.
We believe in working together, not only while playing the game but also with parents, our staff and volunteers. We believe in adhering to a Code of Conduct for both players and their parents that encourages respect for each other as well as officials. We believe that playing the game is only part of why people play.
The value of teamwork, fair play and good sportsmanship goes well beyond the game.
We believe in a positive playing environment, one where teams respect and support each other on and off the rink. We believe in working together to achieve success.
