Welcome to TGHA. We help build future
community leaders and we’re seeking your support.
We need community supporters to help to keep this
program going. Scholarships are offered
so that no girl will be turned away
because of financial need.
Among our expenses are: uniforms, ice time, and
tournament fees. Any cash or in-kind donation helps. Individual team sponsorship is an excellent
direct support
method and allows the team members to concentrate on their
skills with your generous financial support at this level.

Scholarships for those with financial need…
Through our
scholarship and equipment loan programs, we strive to ensure that every
interested girl has the opportunity to play ice hockey. Financial contributions
help greatly in these areas.
Please consider donating specifically to these areas if you’d like to help
ensure an opportunity for ALL interested girls.
Programs for all ages…
TGHA offers ice hockey programs to girls age
4-19. The 2007-08 season
includes our popular Initiation and House sessions targeted to newer skaters.
New this winter,
will be weekly Recreation
hockey for older girls who opt not to travel. Our Shooting Stars travel teams
will compete this year at the 13U, 14U and 16/19U levels. Our
effective TGHA Board strives for
excellent leadership and volunteerism. USA Hockey certified coaches guide young
players with confidence, dedication and FUN!
Mentoring through our Cub Club…
A unique component of our TGHA experience is the wonderful Big Sister mentoring opportunity,
known as Cub Club, founded by local
author and TGHA/Cornell
Alumna Megan Shull. TGHA
players are paired with Cornell Women’s hockey team players and forge
incredible and long-lasting relationships through both
on and off-ice activities.
