Narrative

Sports should be inclusive, fun, and accessible to as many people as possible. When it comes to ice hockey (a hometown favorite), THE GREAT BLIZZARDS is the team for everybody without a team. We teach and coach and engage in all-inclusive hockey out of the Kingston Bog Ice Arena and the Tony Kent Arena in Dennis on the Cape. We have friendly, experienced coaches and assistant coaches. We put an emphasis on blending challenge with fun. We bring skaters of all skill levels, genders, accommodation requirements, and economic backgrounds together in a healthy, confidence-building activity.

If someone with a disability in your life would enjoy the opportunity to shine on the ice, get in touch with us. You can learn more about our program and other opportunities. We make every effort to include all players, regardless of physical or cognitive needs, age, gender, race, ethnicity, experience and other background.
