Philadelphia Flyers Learn To Play

LTP Holman

Learn to Play is a program that provides a unique opportunity for families to join the hockey community and for participants to develop fundamental skills to help them succeed both on and off the ice. Created jointly by the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA) and the National Hockey League (NHL). Learn to Play’s goal is to inspire youth and welcome more families into the hockey community.

No on-ice personnel involved in the program (including coaches, referees, and volunteers) are employed or contracted by, or otherwise affiliated with, the Philadelphia Flyers or Comcast Spectacor.
