Detroit, MI… The Detroit Red Wings Foundation and the Michigan Amateur Hockey Association (MAHA) are partnering for the fourth year to host 30 ‘Try Hockey for Free’ clinics. In an effort to grow the sport of hockey, kids (aged 6-12) are invited to try the sport for the first time at a number of southeastern Michigan rinks. Free equipment will be provided and instruction will be given by certified USA Hockey coaches.
“MAHA has been an outstanding partner alongside the Foundation’s efforts to grow hockey across the state of Michigan,” said Lynsie DeLoss Estes, Detroit Red Wings Foundation Director. “This program provides many young kids the chance to try the sport for free and to receive a high level of instruction in the process. We’re proud to be able to offer this opportunity at so many locations across the state.”
