The puck challenge is back! It started June 15, and we are encouraging all of our Orono Youth Hockey players to participate in the 10k Puck Challenge. Last year, 60 players completed the 10,000 puck challenge over the summer with more than 369,000 pucks shot by our 100+ participants.

To encourage all Orono Youth Hockey players to participate in this challenge, we have created age-based attainable goals for all four levels.

• Bantams - 10,000 pucks (black pucks only)
• Peewees - 7,500 pucks (black pucks only)
• Squirts - 5,000 pucks (black pucks only)
• Mites - 2,500 pucks (black/blue pucks or green biscuits only)
• 
  

The puck challenge will run from June 15, 2024, to September 30, 2024.

This year, Sniper's Edge is proud to partner with OYHA in support of our 10k Puck Challenge! Their mission is to help athletes "Play More. Get Better." OYHA is excited about the partnership with Sniper's Edge because of their great products available for skill development and, most importantly, they are an Orono Hockey family!

A 10k Puck Challenge has been created through Hockeyshare.com, where your hockey player can track their journey with others at the same level. All shots must be logged through Hockeyshare.com to be eligible for the challenge.
