Happy Hour Hockey Celebrates 10 Years of Hockey, Friendship and Community

Hockey ACT Men's Masters is celebrating a special milestone this week, with ACT Men's Masters Happy Hour Hockey marking 10 years of bringing players together both on and off the field.

On 10 November 2016, the very first Happy Hour Hockey session took place, creating an opportunity for retired hockey players to stay connected to the sport they love while enjoying the friendships and social connections that make hockey so special.

The concept was simple: an hour of hockey followed by an even more social gathering at the bar!

Ten years later, Happy Hour Hockey continues to celebrate the spirit of community hockey, providing a welcoming and enjoyable environment for former players to remain active, reconnect with old teammates and share plenty of laughs along the way.

Over the past decade, the initiative has brought together players from across the ACT hockey community, proving that while playing careers may come to an end, the friendships and love of the game continue long after.

Join the 10-Year Celebration!

To recognise this fantastic milestone, ACT Men's Masters Happy Hour Hockey is inviting everyone who has been involved over the past 10 years to come together for a special anniversary celebration.

Whether you've been attending since the very first session in 2016 or have joined along the way, everyone who has been part of the Happy Hour Hockey journey is encouraged to attend.
