Our adult program was established near the later stages of 2020 when the Philadelphia Flyers Sled Hockey organization folded, which put us in a great position to have another team and gives our older juniors the opportunity to still compete at various other tournaments, when they age out. This core really embodies the true meaning behind our program by giving back through mentorship’s to our youth. Our team consists of players from New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. We recruit players throughout our area and we never turn away a player due to financial hardship. We try to give these athletes as many opportunities as we can which includes NESHL league games, tournaments, the National Disabled Sled Hockey Festival and games against able-bodied teams. This year they’ll be traveling to the London Blizzard Tournament in Ontario, Canada, New England Invitational Tournament in Massachusetts and Disabled Fest in West Chester Pennsylvania.
