Introduction
HOA stands for Hockey Opportunities for All. We are an Atlantic Canada based hockey program that travels to the U.S. and Europe every summer. HOA has been established for over 20 years now and are proud to be Atlantic Canada's largest travel sports program.
For 2025 we have European Tours in August. In what is the trip of a lifetime for both the player and family members that attend.
In July/August we travel to the Green Mountains of Vermont to Jay Peak Resort for our summer hockey program
The program challenges the players as individuals or teams with their skill developement and prepares them for tournament or exibition games that week.
HOA offers a completely different experience where players challenge themselves against teams they would otherwise never get to play against. This truly brings an International feeling for the players and an intensity and pride in their preparation and to every game. HOA offers these experiences to all ages and levels.The week is also a growing experience for many players. They quickly become totally focused on representing themselves their teammates and where they come from to the best of their abilities. It is a special week full of memories and new friends.
This is also a wonderful experience for families. Many make this a hockey vacation for the whole family to enjoy.
See our HOA Prices page for player and family rates.
