Motivate 2 Skate

Motivate 2 Skate is a FREE program created to help international post-secondary students, elementary-aged students, and new Canadians learn one of Canada's most enjoyed pastimes - ice skating! With the support of experienced instructors, we are providing the opportunity to learn the basic skills needed to help you skate with confidence in a safe space. YNCU will also provide a pair of skates and a helmet that participants can keep, giving them the opportunity to continue skating upon the completion of the program. Motivate 2 Skate aims to provide a fun and rewarding learning experience.

UPCOMING SESSIONS

YNCU accepting donations of used skates and helmets for M2S Program

Beginning Monday, August 28th, YNCU branches across Ontario will be collecting donations of gently used hockey skates and helmets throughout the rest of 2023 as we prepare to launch the second season of Motivate 2 Skate. Generous donations of used equipment will help YNCU continue to offer free skating lessons into the future, and ensure even more people have the chance to feel confident out on the ice.

We ask that any donated skates and helmets come in usable condition.

Donations can be made at the following locations:

• Sault Ste. Marie - 289 Bay St or 535 Trunk Rd
