The Kensington Valley Hockey Association Board of Directors wishes you a holiday season filled with love, joy, and laughter as you enjoy the moments with family and friends and take time to relax as we start the second half of the hockey season.
District Credentialing takes place for many of our teams in just two weeks, which means that playoffs are right around the corner. We look forward to following our teams throughout the playoffs and wish everyone a successful remainder of the season!

As we close out 2024, we want to thank everyone for your support and for representing our KVHA family humbly and with pride. We remain optimistic for the future of the KVHA and are expecting a bright future for all our players and families.
As the biggest renter of ice at the BIGBY Coffee Ice Cube, the KVHA continues to advocate for our families to ensure that vital rink improvements continue, including repair of the heaters, and we will keep our coaches and managers updated as these are completed. We are starting to plan for the 2025-2026 season and are excited to be adding new programs that will enhance hockey and provide opportunity for everyone at all skill levels, both on and off the ice!
Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones and Cheers to a New Year full of health, wealth, happiness, and success!
