The mission of the Fargo Youth Hockey Association is to promote, develop and administer a youth hockey program. This program is meant to serve the youth of Fargo who reside within the boundaries of the Corporation and petitioning players who reside outside the boundaries of the Corporation. The Corporation's principal purpose is to provide the athletes in the appropriate age group the opportunity to have fun participating in hockey by offering (i) high quality coaching, (ii) adequate ice time for practice and skill development, and (iii) exposure to advanced competition through participation in high caliber games and tournaments.
