The Darien Youth Hockey Association (DYHA) Board of Governors welcomes you to our website and the 2009/2010 hockey season. DYHA is a family oriented youth sports organization based in Darien, Connecticut focused on fair play, fun, and healthy competition for youth hockey players. We are proud members of USA Hockey and the Connecticut Hockey Conference(CHC).
Our 2008/2009 season produced three CHC State Champions and two USA Hockey New England Regional Championships. Our CHC State Champions included: Mite B, Squirt A1 and Pee Wee A. The DYHA Pee Wee As won the 2009 USA Hockey New England Regional Championship. The DYHA Bantam A team as CHC State Champion Runner-Up, qualified for and won the USA Hockey New England Regional Championship. Their Regional Championship earned them a berth in the USA Hockey National Tournament where they advanced to the quarter finals.
