What are past participants saying?
Rocket Launchers has had three really successful years, beginning in 2022/23, with multiple players switching onto regular teams through the season. Here’s what some participants had to say:
- We loved the opportunity to try hockey out and make sure my player loved it before committing to a team for the full year
- The final wrap-up game in Sylvan Lake was a lot of fun!
