2026 Big Wild
The Minnesota Wild will launch the Big Wild program presented by Old National Bank in the summer of 2026. The goal of this program is to introduce the game of hockey to kids aged 9-13 who believe they might have missed their chance to play the sport. This three-phase program will not only target Minnesota natives, but also Minnesota transplants who have moved to the great State of Hockey and don’t realize they can still get into the sport at an older age. One of the main focuses of this program will be to continue growing the girl’s game in Minnesota. We will do this by making sure each location is composed of 20 girls and 20 boys.
Financial assistance may be available to help offset registration costs. If you are interested in learning more, please contact Gabby Billing at gabby.billing@wild.com.
Children who participate in this program will receive the following for a $349 registration fee:
- A full set of hockey equipment – rented through Rink Rat Rentals (with the option to purchase at program conclusion)
- Three Phases of On-Ice Programming (June - August)
- A free ticket to a Minnesota Wild game with the opportunity to purchase additional tickets
