Spring Announcements - 2025

The Orchard Lake Hockey Association (OLHA) is excited to open registrations Spring Learn to Play Hockey and Mini-Mite/Spring Skills Skates. This is a fun opportunity for your child to learn to play hockey or advance their hockey skills while having fun.

The Learn to Play Hockey program is a USA Hockey Cross-Ice Instructional program. All practice plans are based on USA Hockey's American Development Model (ADM). This program is designed to be the natural progression into the Orchard Lake Hockey Association Mini-Mite & Mite program.
