The Snipers are a 501(c)(3) corporation that provides for competitive ice hockey at a substantial discount to full travel hockey. We provide a fun, family atmosphere to our players and emphasize even playing time regardless of individual skill level. We operate year round, and offer pay–as–you–play payment options to those that plan their family budgets from week to week.
We participate in league action from November through March for children starting in the elementary grades up through high school, along with our men’s team in an in-house men’s program through the University of Delaware.
The crown jewel of the Snipers program is our Sled Hockey team that represents the only Delaware ice hockey program that caters to physically-challenged children to young adults. This program is growing and we are proud to offer competitive sled travel hockey for the State of Delaware.
