WILDLIFE ON ICE - ICE HOCKEY, IT'S A CONTACT SPORT!
Ice Hockey, the fastest, and arguably the most exciting, team sport in
the world, is played right here in Cape Town at the new Olympic size venue, the
Ice Station - Grand West Casino complex. We cater for all age groups.
The Western Province Ice Hockey Association controls the sport in the Western
Cape and has four member clubs. They are the Sharks, Rams and
Eagles and a ladies team called the Devils. They all play in the WPIHA
league from February until October of each year. The ladies however play
as a Devils team against visiting ladies teams and not as Devils in the WPIHA
league.
MONDAY AND THURSDAY NIGHT IS HOCKEY NIGHT!
All league games are played on a Monday and Thursday night. Visit
the WPIHA web site
www.icehockey.co.za for an update on game schedules and results.
Spectators are welcome at a nominal fee. Seats are unreserved, so get
there early to get the best view of the game.
WESTERN PROVINCE AND SA COLOURS
Every year, more and more players from the Western Province, from under
12 to Seniors and Ladies divisions, are selected to represent their country.
We are affiliated to SA Ice Hockey Association and the International Ice Hockey
Association (IIHF).
Imagine having travelled to countries like Bulgaria, Spain, Mexico, Yugoslavia,
Iceland, Romania, Czech Republic, Korea and Hungary to play in World Championships and
tournaments as they have. Playing in the snow for the first time, snow
boarding and skiing.
CAN YOU SKATE?
Yes, well that is half the battle won. We are looking for new
members and all are welcome to try out with our professional coach.
Beginners welcome.
When is the best time to start? Now.
We are looking for new players in the u10 and u12 age groups.
