My name is Wyatt Lucas, I am the founder of Hockey Mentors for Special Players. I started playing hockey when I was 4. I have played on house, travel and on the varsity team in high school. Hockey has taught me many life lessons and given me memories I will never forget.
How Hockey Mentors started: For my Eagle Scout project I combined my love of hockey and my desire to help the special needs community. The project was Hockey Mentors, a free of charge day for any individual with special needs regardless of age and ability to learn how to ice skating, play hockey, watch some hockey games played by special needs teams. Participants enjoyed a hearty lunch and took home some cool swag. The event took place in 2022 and was a huge success.
Currently I am sophomore at Lawrence Tech University working studying Biomedical Engineering (the goal is to develop prosthetics for kids that gives them confidence) and I am earning my private pilot license.
Hockey Mentors is a non-profit organization with the IRS. This designation allows those who donate to earn a tax credit.
Hockey Mentors will be an annual event for individuals of all ages with any special need to come out and have an amazing time. Participants learn how to ice skate, watch some hockey games, have lunch, take home some swag and best of all create some unforgettable memories.
No prior experience is needed, I have an incredible group of experienced hockey players that will provide a steady arm and guidance on the ice.
Stay tuned for the summer 2023 event date and registration forms.
