NHL/NHLPA First Shift

The APHA Rangers AA Hockey Program is currently looking to fill coaching positions for the 2023/24 season.

The Ranger program strives to attract and retain the finest coaches available for the program and make every effort to look for independent, non-parent coaches.

These positions include both the heading coaching and assistant coaching rolls. If you are interested in a coaching position within the Rangers organization we invite you to send a resume to Ian MacLeod at imacleod@mymts.net

Thirteen young men understand the meaning of Team.

When one of their teammates was unable to attend what turned out to be their championship winning game because he had to work during that game, those 13 players left the arena after the game and immediately went to their teammate’s workplace to surprise him with his championship medal and to take a team photo with him and their championship banner.

That’s caring about your teammates and a great example of sportsmanship.

 “THANK YOU”

to our coaches, assistant coaches, managers, safety and communication officers for the many hours put in this winter. 
Despite some challenges the kids were able to complete the year and return to some form of ‘normal’.

Thank you for your time, energy and hard work to ensure that happened.

We couldn’t do it without you!!

APHA extends congratulations to all APHA teams but recognizes those who reached the city finals on the Champions page.

Many thanks to Pro Hockey Life for their generous donation.

It is greatly appreciated.

Many thanks to Scotiabank for their generous donation to APHA!

It is greatly appreciated.

The mission of the APHA hockey program is to make sure that our children have fun while learning skills that will help them enjoy a lifetime of hockey and develop into complete individuals. Our reward for taking on this challenge is more children playing and staying in hockey.
