Jamborees are specialized youth tournaments aimed at less experienced hockey players, emphasizing fun and fair play.

The Penalty-Free Challenge encourages positive social values. During BC Minor Hockey Week, teams who play a penalty free game submit their game sheet and entry form will receive a prize.  

Lace ‘Em Up is a program designed to encourage registration in local minor hockey associations by focusing on the new or first-time participant. These participants are exposed to the game in a non-threatening and enjoyable environment.
