Welcome to Houston Youth Hockey Group
Houston Youth Hockey Group (“HYHG”) was formed in 2019 (with our current legal entity being established in 2020) as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization with the straightforward philosophy to “give every child the chance to experience hockey” and is governed by a set of Bylaws as well as rules, policies, and guidelines that are managed by a Board of Directors with the mission to:
- Improve community awareness of the sport of youth hockey.
- Improve community engagement of the sport of youth hockey.
Our founding philosophy is to allow every child the chance to experience hockey regardless of financial abilities to pay or any other factors. The Houston Youth Hockey Community is currently comprised of 200+ players, and only an estimated 5 out of 10 people know it exists in Houston.
The Community Engagement:
With that philosophy of every child should be able to experience hockey, our goal is to donate dry land equipment to community centers, schools, after school programs, and sports complexes that cannot afford to purchase dryland hockey equipment. The cost of donating this equipment varies by multiple factors. Gear donated includes, Sticks, Green Biscuits & Balls, Nets, and in some cases pennies for game setup.
The Community Awareness
In addition to providing kids with dry land hockey equipment, Houston Youth Hockey Group also attempts to attends all the community fairs, festivals, and events that are financially possible to attend. By attending these events we not only raise awareness for our organization, but we raise awareness for youth hockey in Houston. Ultimately fulfilling the community awareness portion of our goal.
