The Festival takes place in different parts of the country each year. In 2014 the Festival will be held at the New England Sports Center in Marlborough Massachusetts. The center contains 6 NHL size rinks, snack bar, skate shop, and plenty of lounging space.

The USA Disabled Hockey Festival is the largest disabled hockey event of its kind. It brings together all the disciplines; Special Hockey for players with developmental disabilities,

The mission of the Festival is to provide a fun and exciting weekend of hockey by putting EveryBODY’s abilities on the ice. The event also serves to promote and grow disabled hockey throughout the country.

The Festival will begin the morning of Friday April 11 and continue until early afternoon on Sunday April 13. 

On Friday evening at 6:00 pm, we will feature a Boston Bruins Alumni Game to benefit Massachusetts Special Hockey followed by a dinner dance social for all participants, families and friends. The public is welcome.
