Las Vegas girls are stepping into hockey at a time when the sport is growing faster than ever in Southern Nevada. The Vegas Golden Knights will launch their first girls-only NHL Learn to Play program at Hylo Park Arena this winter. The debut lines up with Wickfest’s first appearance in the United States, giving young skaters ages 4 to 10 the chance to learn from Olympians, Hall of Famers and PWHL stars.
A first in Vegas and a first in the U.S.
The Learn to Play session opens during Wickfest, a global girls hockey festival founded by four-time Olympic gold medalist Hayley Wickenheiser.
