4SSRH - FOUR SEASON SPORTS ROLLER HOCKEY

Four Season Sports is an organization built around the development of creativity in sport. 4SS currently offers programs all year round at Syl Apps Community Centre in Paris & Woodman Park Community Centre in Brantford.

4SSRH, our roller hockey program is entering its 10th year. Since the inception of our Youth Programs in 2007, we have seen an increase in registration numbers within all our roller hockey programs. The numbers are very positive with a 24% growth in 2008, followed by 36% growth in 2009 and a very exciting 54% growth in 2010. Girls and boys, men and women of all skill levels from beginner to advanced are welcome to participate.
The sport of roller hockey is a great way to improve your ice hockey game. Many of the members of the Canning Mudhogs Mens team play both ice and roller hockey.

Our Mission

Four Season Sports was developed with creativity in sport being the focus. Creativity in sport is simply playing outside the box and finding comfort at your experience level. It’s ok to be different and not everyone has the same skill set. Within our programs we have set out to offer different levels of competition for all players. Our most unique programs actually combine all talent levels to make a fun, evenly matched opportunity to play sports.
