Inspire. Empower. Include.
Mission Statement: The mission of the BC Hockey Growth Initiative is to create a supportive and inclusive environment where children can enhance their physical literacy through active participation in hockey. By integrating physical education with hockey-based skills, the initiative helps children develop balance, coordination, and agility, all while instilling values of sportsmanship, teamwork, and perseverance. Through partnerships with elementary schools, and community groups, the program strives to make the sport accessible to all students, encouraging physical activity and personal growth in a fun and engaging way.
Our goal is to make hockey accessible to all children, fostering a passion for the game while promoting lifelong health and fitness.
Through structured programs and school partnerships, we aim to inspire agility, strength, and teamwork in young athletes, ensuring they develop not only the physical skills but also the discipline and confidence to excel both on and off the ice
LET’S WORK TOGETHER!
Our Charitable Programs
The BC Hockey Growth Initiative’s programs are designed to make a significant impact across the province. A cornerstone of our efforts is a $1.8 million program aimed at introducing floorball to all elementary schools in British Columbia. This initiative ensures that every child has the opportunity to engage in a fast-paced, accessible version of hockey. Following this, we offer a community-based after-school program specifically tailored to support kids in need, providing them with continued access to the sport, mentorship, and a safe environment to grow both physically and socially.

IMPACTING TODAYS CHILDREN TOMORROWS LEADERS
The impact of the BC Hockey Growth Initiative’s programs is both immediate and far-reaching. By introducing floorball in all elementary schools, we are not only enhancing students’ physical literacy but also cultivating a passion for active living. The program fosters agility, coordination, and teamwork, providing students with skills that benefit them both on and off the field. The subsequent community after-school program, designed to assist kids in need, further deepens this impact by offering continued access to physical activity, mentorship, and social engagement in a supportive environment. Together, these programs help reduce barriers to participation in sports, promote inclusivity, and create lasting opportunities for personal development and community building.
