The Summerland Jets Alumni Association is a dedicated non-profit organization committed to empowering local youth through the game of hockey. Founded in 2019, our mission is to ensure that every child in Summerland has the opportunity to participate in Minor Hockey—regardless of financial circumstances.
We proudly support over 120 players, ages 6 to 18, involved in the Summerland Minor Hockey Association, including zone and regional teams. Hockey is more than just a sport—it teaches critical life skills such as teamwork, responsibility, perseverance, and leadership.
Each year, the Alumni Association awards multiple $750 bursaries to graduating students of Summerland Secondary School. In addition, we provide confidential financial assistance to families in need, helping cover team fees and equipment costs so no child is left on the sidelines.
To further our mission, we host fundraising events like our annual Homecoming Tournament, which brings the community together while raising vital funds to support our programs.
At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to creating opportunities, building confidence, and developing the next generation of leaders—on and off the ice.
