The Warrior Hockey Discipline of USA Hockey is focused on supporting injured and disabled US Military Veterans who have served our country and enjoy playing ice hockey. To be eligible to compete in the Warrior Hockey Discipline, participants must have been discharged from service under honorable conditions with the ability to provide official documentation from their designated military branch.

Transitioning to civilian life after military service is often challenging to our Veterans and their family members. The players and families of the Philadelphia Warriors hockey club find belonging to the program brings comfort and valuable resources during this transitional phase of life.
Participants of the USA Hockey-affiliated Warrior hockey program are Veterans with a minimum of a 10 percent VA-rated disability. The Philadelphia Warriors Hockey Program continues to grow to be a positive and life-altering experience for its players and family members.
