Skatium Ice Arena hockey classes are divided into three programs. The Future Flyers for kids who have yet to play organized hockey. Leagues for players already on a team. And finally, an adult instructional program. All classes are designed to improve a player's base of knowledge & skill. We offer our programs to all ages & abilities. We also offer a Youth House League for the 5- to 17-year-olds who have taken classes or acquired the skills to play on an organized team. Our Adult 25-plus No-Check League is for the competitive adult player, offering two tiers based on skill level. The Youth House League is for individual player sign up only. The Adult League is by team sign-up only and can be accessed here. For all things Skokie Hockey, visit our webpage here.
