College of the Canyons (COC) Ice Hockey is dedicated to the student-athlete that cares about their future and that would like to continue playing a high level of competitive hockey. Choosing COC to meet those goals has been a smart move for nearly 150 such individuals to date.

Educationally, COC is one of the top 2-year colleges in the country, both with transfer rates to 4-year programs and student success once there. Both rates are higher than going directly to a 4-year college straight out of high school; the reason for that is the small class size and quality of instruction: all professors hold, at a minimum, Masters degrees and a good deal of them hold Doctorates as well. You will not find classes of 200 taught by anyone other than a fully certified instructor. In addition as a member of the Club, you are afforded the same privileges as an intercollegiate athlete: one-on-one counseling and early registration.

As for the hockey side of things, COC is a member of both the PCHA (Pacific Collegiate Hockey Association), a statewide league and the ACHA (American Collegiate Hockey Association), which is a National organization. COC has consistently ranked as one of the top teams in the State, finishing 1st twice, and has also been ranked #5, #10 and #12 Nationally: in 6 short years, the Team has proven over and over that it is highly competitive not only within the State but Nationally as well.

If you’re looking for exposure, you’ll have the chance to be seen by top programs throughout the country without the fear of lost NCAA eligibility.

Our core goal is to make good hockey players even better and to send them along towards their degrees - where they can continue to play the same level of hockey at other 4-years colleges. We have transferred former students to programs throughout the country and have a very high success rate in doing so.
