Welcome to the Home of the
Springfield Capitals

    The Springfield Capitals Hockey Organization has been providing a fun
    and safe environment for boys and girls ages 4 through 18 to learn the
    game of hockey since 1982.  The Springfield Capitals began as a merger
    of teams from 16 Acres, Holy Cross and Van Horn Park, and has enjoyed
    successful teams since its' inception.  The Capitals Organization
    focuses  on respect, fun and good sportsmanship in a team environment.

    Our littlest group of players are ages 4 - 6 can participate in an
    instructional LEARN TO SKATE program.  Once the LEARN TO SKATE
    program has been completed, some 6 year old children may participate
    on a SPRINGFIELD CAPITAL MITE DIVISION team.  

    MITE DIVISION is designed for children age 6- 8 who want to learn to play
    hockey in a team environment.  Teams are divided by age and skill.  Mites
    are coached by adult volunteers who are USA Hockey certified.   Teams
    have 2 practices per week and usually 1 or 2 games each weekend
    competing in the Greater Springfield Hockey League.

    SQUIRT DIVISION is a slightly more competitive environment for
    youngsters ages 9 & 10.  Players are beginning to learn the strategies
    and improve on the skills which they need to effectively participate.  
    Some players are new to the game in this division, but some players have
    played for a year or two in the MITE DIVISION.  Teams are coached by
    adult volunteers who are USA Hockey certified.  Teams have 2 practices
    per week, and usually have 1 or 2 games each weekend competing in the
    Greater Springfield Hockey League.

    PEEWEE DIVISION is an even more competitive environment  for girls
    and boys ages 11 & 12.  By now, players understand the basics of the
    game of hockey, and are preparing to take it to a higher level.  Coaches
    have significant experience in playing hockey  and are USA Hockey
    certified.  Teams practice twice a week and play at least 1 or 2 games
    each weekend in the Greater Springfield Hockey League.

    BANTAM DIVISION combines both skill and experience in a highly
    competitive team for boys and girls ages 13 & 14.  Coached by adult
    volunteers who are USA Hockey certified, the Bantams combine skill,
    experience and strategies to participate in the Great Springfield Hockey
    League.  Teams usually practice twice a week with at least 1 or 2 games
    each weekend.
