Who are the Pioneers?
We are folks who love to play hockey! We are based in Central Vermont and travel New England and nationally! The travel team ranges in age from 14 years old to 72. The Pioneers have also started a recreational team where the youngest player is 8! Most of us have some type of physical challenge that makes sitting in a hockey sled the only way we can play this sport. We have 4 father/son duos on the team as well. We practice together each week and play in tournaments throughout the Northeast. As often as we can, we hold clinics to introduce the sport to others who may benefit from playing.
What are the benefits of being a Pioneer?
Belonging to a team. A commitment to each other. The excitement of competition. Fun. Exercise. Encouragement. Striving to do one’s best. Being a part of the community. The satisfaction of getting better with hard work. And most importantly, life-long friendships.
