There is no cost to the facilities for this program and all that kids need to participate is a pair of sneakers. The Blue Jackets further support this program with clinics and a championship tournament at the end of the year.

Currently, there are 45 centers participating in the program. If you are a school, parks and recreation center, YMCA, or any other type of community based facility please call the Blue Jackets Fan Development Department at (614) 246-4158.
