Season Recap and Survey
Although several teams are not quite finished with the 2021-2022 season, we're already looking ahead to build off this successful season and have our best season ever in 2022-2023. Stay tuned for our registration and try-out info coming shortly.
It's amazing to see how far we’ve come this season and over the last two years of running a Minor Hockey Program in the Pandemic. THANK YOU! to everyone who has done their part in making a success of a very difficult time and THANK YOU! to everyone for your patience.

We’re striving to deliver the BEST minor hockey program while developing our players on and off the ice. To accomplish this, we rely on everyone in Lakers Nation…not just the Board, the Coaching Staff, the Volunteers and we’re asking you to help by providing feedback on the WMHA Program.

Getting your feedback is important to our success. Please follow the link below and please provide your feedback. You can do the survey anonymously or if you leave your name, you’ll be entered into a draw for a $50 gift certificate to a local restaurant.
