What does CNN in CNN Spurs stand for?
Our association name is the CNN Spurs and the "CNN" stands for Crows Nest North, which is the road that is the halfway point between Gibbons and Bon Accord. Our CNN minor hockey teams are made up of families from both communities as well as rural Sturgeon County, which makes the CNN family larger than your average rural minor hockey association.
CNN’s Philosophy
CNN Spurs Minor Hockey creates a holistic learning environment for all players, parents, and coaches. Giving players a safe and fun learning experience is our number one priority. We are committed to developing strong hockey players on the ice and well-rounded individuals off the ice.
What can you expect from CNN and what do WE have to offer?
CNN Spurs is a rural minor hockey association, with big benefits including access to two arenas. We offer reasonable hockey fees, which include hockey development for both players and goalies. CNN belongs to the North Eastern Alberta Hockey League (NEAHL).
The CNN Spurs hockey season starts with registration in June. We kick off the season in the first week in September with conditioning camps (U9-U18) to prepare for evaluations & team splitting. Practices begin immediately after teams are set. The hockey season usually ends mid-February with playoffs wrapping up around middle of March.
