Yukon Indian Hockey Association

Youth Hockey

The Yukon Indian Hockey Association’s (YIHA) Youth tournament has been organized in conjunction with YIHA’s Adult tournament since 2001. The youth tournament provides an opportunity for 10 – 13 year olds to participate in this very popular tournament with some of their Yukon Aboriginal hockey heros. YIHA is committed to developing the next generation of Yukon’s Aboriginal hockey players with the intention of developing and providing skilled aboriginal players for future Yukon Indian Hockey Tournament and also to increase the chances of Aboriginal Yukon youth achieving their hockey dreams.

The Yukon Indian Hockey Association has partnered with the Yukon Aboriginal Sport Circle (YASC); who equally shares the same vision of developing Yukon’s Aboriginal youth hockey players; to move forward with the youth tournament and increase exposure for the youth native hockey players. Both YIHA and YASC are committed to helping aboriginal youth achieve their dreams in hockey and the youth tournament is one way to help youth achieve their goals, whether it be playing in the YIHA Adult division or playing in the NHL.

The Youth are the future of Hockey and the Yukon Indian Hockey Tournament!
