Nonotuck Valley Hockey Association

Nonotuck Valley Knights

Based in Easthampton, MA, NVHA serves the surrounding areas like Northampton, Southampton, Westhampton, Hatfield, Huntington, Williamsburg, Chesterfield, and Goshen. We offer youth hockey programs for all skill levels and competition types, so there’s a spot for every kid who wants to play.

As a non-profit, we really depend on parents and community members to step up and help out with coaching and managing the teams. This support is what keeps our programs running smoothly. We’re proud to be part of USA Hockey and the Greater Springfield Hockey League (GSL), which helps us provide a great hockey experience while maintaining high standards for the sport.

On our website, you can find everything from news and schedules to team rosters and game results. Be sure to check back often for the latest updates about what’s happening with the association!
