NEW FOR 2025-2026 SEASON

2015 & 2016 Birth Year Hockey Teams is offered to players who are looking for more development. Each team will consist of players who are from one specific birth year and will play a PAHL schedule, as well as multiple tournaments and independent games throughout the season.

Armstrong Arrows 8U Mite ADM (American Development Model) Teams are proud members of the Pittsburgh Amateur Hockey League (PAHL). These teams are for both boys and girls.

The Armstrong Arrows plan to field Red, White and Blue Teams for the 2025-2026 Season.

BENEFITS OF ADM:

MORE PUCK TOUCHES: Smaller spaces mean more opportunity for a player to touch the puck – and ultimately improve their game.

AGE-APPROPRIATE TRAINING: By shrinking the ice down to their level, kids can get more involved and learn skills quicker and easier.

INCREASED COMPETITION: A smaller ice surface makes players of all skill levels think and act quicker, resulting in more frequent battles for the

puck.

FUN FOR ALL: There's a direct relationship between the amount of time a player spends with the puck and their passion for the game. The more active we can keep them, the more enjoyable their experience will be. And more fun they have, the more they'll learn.

Armstrong Arrows PAHL Teams are members of the Pittsburgh Amateur Hockey League (PAHL) and will field teams from Squirt 10U level on up through midget age players 15U.
