USA Warriors Ice Hockey Program

The USA Warriors Ice Hockey Program, a 501(c)(3), has been organized to operate exclusively for charitable and educational purposes, for those wounded in defense of the United States.

The Program’s mission is to organize and administer an ice hockey program that provides a recreational, therapeutic experience and education.

The program educates, trains, motivates, and encourages the formation of “USA Warrior Hockey Programs” locally and nationally while encouraging individuals who have physical disabilities incurred during service to the United States to participate in the sport of ice hockey in an environment that is adapted to the level of their ability.

The USA Warriors Ice Hockey Program, Inc. is staffed by volunteers, on-ice and off-ice mentors and directors who do not receive any compensation, stipend or other remuneration for their time.

Since 20019, Doug Chivington has dedicated his personal time to partner with Veteran nonprofit organizations raising awareness and funding for combat veterans who may have TBI (Traumatic Brain Injuries) and/or PTSD.  

The Chivington family is a military family and have much to be thankful for!   Since 2004 two of their sons have been deployed four separate times.    On one deployment, their oldest son experienced a serious combat injury resulting in nearly two years of rehabilitation.

The Chivington Family have created an organization called “Team Chivington”.   Their mission is to raise awareness and funding for our returning combat veterans who still need our support.

On Thursday June 17 thru Friday June 18, 2021, Team Chivington will be attempting in 3 different age group cycling records recognized by the World Ultra Cycling Association.  This event will also be a fundraiser for the USA Warriors Ice Hockey Program which is an adaptive sport specific for wounded veterans!
