We have a wide variety of ages and skill levels in our In-House program. The ideal In-House level player will have completed the Hockey 123 Class, or another comparable skating or hockey program. In-House players have basic skating skills, feel comfortable on their skates, an enthusiasm for the game of hockey, are committed to attending (on time!) all ice sessions when possible and a willingness to learn and improve. In-House coaches will also prepare players who are interested in progressing onto an Oakland Bears Travel Hockey team.

The goal of the Bears In-House Program is to provide a positive youth hockey experience for players of all skills levels that will help them develop as players and individuals and foster a life-long enjoyment of the game of hockey. We strive to create an environment where Oakland and Bay Area youth can learn valuable life skills such as teamwork, good sportsmanship, positive attitude and strong work ethic. The Bears In-House program is a recreational ice hockey program that offers hockey to five age groups: 6U, 8U, 10U, 12U, 14U. We are the house hockey program of the Oakland Bears club, a USA Hockey Model Association.

Players must provide their own HECC certified equipement and skates.  Sharks Ice will provide a reversible jersey and all players must wear the provided jerseys for all practices and games.  We will exchange the jersey for a larger size if the players has grown out of their current jersey.  A $50.00 fee will be charged for any lost or unreturned jerseys.
