Thank you for your interest in Tewksbury Youth Skating Association's Learn to Play (LTP) program. Boys and Girls ages 5+ who have had one session of Learn to Skate or a comparable beginner ice skating program and are comfortable skating. We welcome children for Tewksbury and all surrounding areas. Our Learn to Play sessions develop fundamental hockey skills.  

Structured around USA Hockey's model, players begin to work on the fundamental concepts of hockey as well as balance, hand eye coordination, skills and flexibility. The LTP program develops the players' skating skills, but also incorporates some of the fundamentals of hockey in a fun-filled atmosphere with supervised instruction.  Kids will learn to play and experience hockey in a smaller controlled environment.
