• HISTORY -  Marathon County Youth Hockey (originally Wausau Area Youth Hockey is a non-profit, volunteer based association formed to serve our community's school age youth within the boundaries of the Wausau School District.

• OBJECTIVE - MCYH is dedicated to the development of hockey skills and attitudes of area youth for the purpose of fielding competitive teams and to benefit our Wausau High School programs.  We expect our players to strive to the highest standards of playing skills and conduct both on and off the ice.

• COSTLY? - Thanks to the tremendous volunteer contribution of association members, MCYH programs are affordable for all income levels. Our Learn-to-Skate Programs are free and our introductory Mini-Mite program has no registration fee and provides most equipment (excluding skates and stick) for all youth interested in trying the sport.

• KIDS -  Kids on ice are seldom in hot water! In addition to learning specific skills, MCYH assists our community youth in developing personal character by promoting positive values such as teamwork and good sportsmanship.

• Enjoyment - All of our coaches are USA Hockey certified ensuring all players are provided a truly fun, learning environment that keeps our players returning season after season.

• Yes - Yes, sign me up for the "Coolest game on ice!" Interested players and parents should feel free to contact our registrar or any Board member for further details. Registration occurs in early September and additional details are fees are provided on our current season registration form.

WHAT IS A WARJACK????

In 2002, the MCYH asked local hockey players to come up with a logo that best represented their association. The winning design combined the two local high school logos:

Wausau West High School WARriors

Wausau East High School LumberJACKS
