    In order to register you must pay by credit card or e-transfer (select “check” option for payment method). 

    For e-transfer, please indicate the name of the registrant in the notes and send the total fee amount to registration@rcfha.org 

    If you register your child and do not pay, they cannot be placed on a team!

  • Fee subsidization

    The Richmond Sports Council and the City of Richmond have established the Active Recreation & Sport Fund. This is designed to provide funding for children and youth who are residents of Richmond (18 years and younger) to participate in active recreation programs and sports where financial barriers impact inclusion.

    We highly recommend applying for this if you qualify for it. Please see the form below to see if you qualify and instructions on how to apply for this fund:

General

  • Is Cosom Hockey expensive?

    No. We feel we are the most affordable sport you will find in Metro Vancouver.

  • Is Cosom Hockey rough?

    No! Cosom Hockey is a non-contact sport and rough play is penalized. We have rules in place for the safety of the players. 

  • What is Cosom Hockey and how is it different from other types of hockey?

    Cosom Hockey is an indoor form of hockey played in Elementary and High School gyms. 

    We use lightweight plastic sticks and pucks. 

    While Cosom has the same basic concepts of ice hockey and ball hockey, it also has unique aspects to make it a more accessible sport to players and adults of all athletic skills and sports backgrounds.  

  • What if my child has not played hockey before?

    No experience necessary! 

    We do not require anything more than enthusiasm. 

    Our coaches teach the skills necessary to pick up the game.
