Canada’s national winter sport has been entwined with Shawnigan for decades, from informal scrimmages at the School to the development of an ice hockey program in 1974 to joining the Canadian Sport School Hockey League (CSSHL) in 2014 and the opening of the Charlie Purdey Arena on campus in 2015.
Shawnigan’s hockey programs now include four competitive teams in the Canadian Sport School Hockey League and several developmental teams that play against other Vancouver Island schools.
Shawnigan offers young hockey players a chance to play at a high level while obtaining an outstanding education, and our program is geared toward developing skills in the sport and helping student-athletes get to the next level, both on and off the ice.
