We are on the constant pursuit of growing, legitimizing, and improving the sport of roller hockey as a whole and providing the most amount of opportunity to play this great sport as possible. 

Grand Canyon University Roller Hockey is a member of the Western Collegiate Roller Hockey League (WCRHL) and the National Collegiate Roller Hockey Association (NCRHA). GCU teams currently compete at the Division 1 and AA levels.

GCU teams practice and workout 3x a week and play approximately 50 games per season, including extra tournaments, exhibition games, and Bowl events. We currently hold the unofficial title of playing the most games in a season of any roller hockey team on the planet at any level.

We call the Peoria Sportsplex home in Peoria, AZ. We also have an outdoor tiled rink on our campus in Phoenix, AZ which we call home for 1 game per season. We take great pride in being a part of one of the best and most vibrant roller hockey communities in the world with tons of mens leagues, extra events, and opportunities to skate.
