FAHA will continue to work with all Hockey associations in Fairbanks and Alaska in multiple ways to continue to develop and grow strong youth hockey programs that help all Fairbanks hockey players. Our common goal is to allow youth hockey players grow to their full potential and to instill a love for the sport of hockey that will last a lifetime.
