Warrior Hockey

About Warrior Hockey

USA Hockey’s Warrior Hockey Discipline is dedicated to injured and disabled U.S. military veterans who have served our country and play the sport of ice hockey. As one of the Disabled Hockey Section's newest disciplines, Warrior Hockey is quickly growing across the country.  While some of the participants played hockey prior to being injured, many try it for the first time for therapeutic reasons.  

To be eligible to compete in the Warrior Hockey Discipline, participants must have a discharge under honorable conditions with the ability to provide official documentation from their designated branch of service. For full eligibility criteria, see the Warrior Hockey rules below.

USA Hockey thanks the men and women of the armed forces for their service.
