U13 Lakers

U13 Lakers are 11 & 12 years old, and for the 2025-2026 season that means their year of birth is 2013 and 2014.  Our U13 Lakers play in the Central Alberta Hockey League  (CAHL).

U13 AA & AAA

SLMHA is also host to the West Central Tigers Hub, providing U13 players with the opportunity to play at the AA & AAA level in the Alberta Elite Hockey League (AEHL). AAA, AA & Advanced Tryouts each have a separate tryout fee in addition to the participant fee.
