Welcome to the new home of Summer Hockey in Western MN!

Check out our new, comprehensive menu of programs for all ages, skill and competitive levels.  From the novice just out for some ice time, to developing players at younger ages, all the way to serious teenagers playing hockey, there's something for everybody!

We are fortunate to have two of the the very best coming to Willmar to provide lessons on skating, edgework and more!  West MN Hockey strongly encourages EVERYONE to consider both of these clinics, Jake Lydon 88 and Skate with Holly Harrington.

If you're a goaltender, we have a clinic that runs weekly for 90 minutes that will keep you developing throughout the summer. And then for the first time, we are very lucky to have Seattle Kraken Goaltender Coach Steve Briere bring his Canadian Professional Goaltender School to Willmar July 22nd-25th.  You won't find better opportunity for instruction and development.

Also, don't miss our skills sessions, open hockey and stick and shoot sessions.  Plenty of opportunity for anyone who wants to get better.  No longer any excuses from one season to the next not to move up in the depth chart on your team or make that higher-level team!  You get out of it what you put into it!

Finally, don't miss the opportunity for some tournament hockey and awesome camp experiences!

Looking forward to seeing everyone on the ice this summer!

West MN Hockey

West MN Hockey has taken the reigns from the West Central Hockey group to coordinate, develop and grow the hockey in Western MN.  The summer ice block and top-notch facilities  at the Willmar Civic Center will be used in June and July to help hockey players grow their passion for the game and develop their skillset, athleticism and competitive mind.
