Younger kids can soon get involved with the North Bay North Stars special hockey program.

They’re launching a new initiation program in September for kids as young as six years old.

It will focus on fun, instilling a love of the game, fundamental skills like skating and learning the rules of play.

It’s all thanks to an $8,600 grant from the GoodLife Kids Foundation.

The North Stars are partnering with Community Living North Bay to offer the new entry point for the program.
