Kensington Valley Hockey Association

Founded in 1993, the Kensington Valley Hockey Association (KVHA) has been a cornerstone of youth hockey development in Southeast Michigan. Our organization serves over 500 players annually across 30+ teams, offering programs from Learn-to-Play for beginners through competitive Tier 2/3 travel hockey for elite athletes. We maintain partnerships with local rinks including the Biggby Coffee Ice Cube in Brighton, providing state-of-the-art facilities for training and competition. Our coaching staff combines USA Hockey-certified professionals with former collegiate and professional players who mentor athletes in skill development, sportsmanship, and leadership. KVHA alumni have progressed to NCAA Division I programs, junior hockey leagues, and even professional careers, demonstrating our commitment to nurturing talent at every level.

We emphasize community engagement through initiatives like our Try Hockey Free program and financial aid scholarships that make hockey accessible to all families. Our structured development model follows USA Hockey's American Development Model guidelines, ensuring age-appropriate training that maximizes player growth. The association maintains rigorous safety standards with mandatory concussion protocols and equipment compliance programs. Through our alumni network and Hall of Fame, we preserve hockey traditions while fostering future generations of players and coaches. Our administrative team ensures seamless operations with transparent communication channels for parents, players, and volunteers.
