Welcome to the Tampa Bay Lightning Sled Hockey Program Registration!

We are excited to welcome you to another season of Tampa Bay Lightning Sled Hockey program! Our program is open to individuals with physical disabilities and is designed to provide both competitive and recreational opportunities for players of all skill levels.

For the 2025–2026 season, we will offer two program tracks:

• Competitive Travel Team: This group will represent the Tampa Bay Lightning in USA Hockey-sanctioned tournaments, including the NHL Sled Classic in the fall and the Toyota-USA Hockey Sled National Championship in May. Players must be committed to a competitive schedule and travel.

• Development/Recreational Group: This group is perfect for those newer to sled hockey or looking to build skills in a more relaxed, supportive environment. Participants will attend 18 practice sessions throughout the season, focusing on foundational skills, teamwork, and game awareness.

All practices will be held at our home rink for the season:
