Information About Arapahoe Youth Hockey

Arapahoe Youth Hockey is a premier youth hockey association in Colorado.  Located in Metro Denver, AYH is based at the South Suburban Family Sports Center complex (the practice facility for the Colorado Avalanche), and South Suburban Ice Arena.  In late 2020 or early 2021, Arapahoe will move into the new South Suburban Recreation Complex.  


Arapahoe Team Opportunities

Arapahoe Youth Hockey is a highly structured youth program in Colorado that includes opportunities for boys and girls of all ages and skill levels.  As members of the Colorado Competitive Youth Hockey League (CCYHL), Arapahoe fields competitive teams for players ages 9 to 18.  As members of the Colorado Recreation Hockey League (CRHL), Arapahoe fields "house-recreational" teams for all players not interested in trying out for the more competitive CCYHL teams.   Like CCYHL teams, CRHL teams are available  to players ages 9-18.  

New for the 2020-21 season, based on the level of interest, Arapahoe plans to field GIRLS ONLY teams for competition in the Colorado Girls Hockey League (CGHL).

 The Arapahoe 8U Mite program is organized into three levels based on age and ability: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced.  For boys and girls ages 5-8, the Arapahoe Mite program ensures players have fun and develop the age appropriate skills, and athletic skills that include agility balance and coordination.
