Welcome to the home of the St. Albans Skating Association (SASA). We offer programs for children ages 4-18. Children can learn to skate in our Young Blades program and continue to grow and play hockey through our midget program. We also offer teams for girls at the u-12 and u-14 level. Feel free to explore our site to find out what we have to offer.
SASA's Mission Statement:
To provide a fun, safe, competitive environment that allows not only each child to grow and develop into the best hockey player they can be, but the best person they can be. This is to be done learning teamwork, camaraderie, sportsmanship, dedication, and having respect for the games, coaches, officials, and parents who help serve our hockey community.
