RRW FORMULA FOR SUCCESS
RRW teams always practice on a full sheet of ice, never a 1/2 ice practice.
Every practice combines:
- Skill Development
- Position & Team Play
- Speed and Conditioning
We combine everything into one connected experience!
Consistent High Level Development All Season Long
Our History
RRW Hockey was founded in 2000 by Jay Kirk and Frank Lupiani.
Built from players others overlooked, RRW turned potential into performance.
Within 2 years, we were competing for State Championships, winning elite tournaments, and capturing league titles.
RRW Hockey was never about where you started- it's about how far you're willing to go.

RRW Hockey is more than a team — it’s a family.
Over 90% of RRW players and families stayed together for years after joining our program.
Families become friends.
Players become hockey brothers.
Take our 1991 birth-year group as an example — brothers in every sense of the word. These players competed together for years, every one of them earning a spot on their high school varsity teams as freshmen.
At the Bantam Major (14U) level, RRW provided a split season, giving every player the chance to skate in front of hundreds of fans for their schools. After battling each other during the high school season, they returned to RRW, reunited as one team.
Together, they:
- Won league championships
- Advanced to State Tournaments
- Strengthened bonds that lasted far beyond the rink
Many other RRW teams have shared the same journey and the same joy.
This is what RRW is all about:
Get them. Teach them. Watch them grow on and off ice.
Then bring them back to flourish once again — as one team, bonded brothers.
The opportunity is now yours.
Jay's Commitment To Our Successful Return
Jay's Commitment To Our Successful Return
As one of the founders of RRW Hockey in 2000, I spent countless hours building this program from the ground up. In just three years, RRW grew from 2 teams to 8 teams, driven by a clear philosophy: strong development, strong relationships, and a true hockey family.
Today, many former players and families are asking for what RRW once was —
As one of the founders of RRW Hockey in 2000, I spent countless hours building this program from the ground up. In just three years, RRW grew from 2 teams to 8 teams, driven by a clear philosophy: strong development, strong relationships, and a true hockey family.
Today, many former players and families are asking for what RRW once was — and what it can be again.
The foundation of that return starts where it always should: Learn To Skate and Cross Ice Programs. These programs will fuel our future growth from the bottom up.
The Learn To Skate and Cross Ice programs are pure fun. I will personally guide families through a season focused on growth, confidence, and enjoyment of the game.
With the assistance of former players and coaches we will grow our new coaching staff. We will provide opportunity to parents / siblings to participate with their future players on-ice each week.
