About RHC
Recreational Hockey Calgary (RHC) was created in response to a need for a less competitive playing environment and a less demanding time commitment that exists in community hockey. RHC has an emphasis on skills development, structured team play with multi-ability teams, a set schedule with a minimal time commitment. The organization encourages and supports good sportsmanship, fair play, friendship, and respect.
We are committed to all our youth (aged 11-20), regardless of background or circumstance, being able to enjoy a healthy sports activity in a positive and safe environment.
This may include:
- continuing players who want to stay in the game,
- players with other commitments for whom hockey is a ‘second’ activity, and
- new players who want to try organized hockey.
