The Philadelphia Flyers are gearing up for another season of growth and community engagement, as the “Flyers Learn to Play” rookie program makes its return for a decade of development. The program, which has become a staple of the Flyers’ outreach, is celebrating its 10th season, and the organization is excited to name Owen Tippett and Taylor Tippett as ambassadors for the initiative.
The Tippett brothers, known for their passion for the game and their commitment to fostering young talent, will serve as the face of the program this year. Their involvement signals a continued emphasis on player mentorship and the promotion of hockey skills among the next generation of Flyers fans and future players. By bringing the Tippett name to the forefront, the Flyers hope to inspire youth across the region to take up the sport, learn the fundamentals, and develop the confidence to pursue their own hockey dreams.
The “Flyers Learn to Play” program has long been a cornerstone of the organization’s community outreach. It offers free hockey clinics, skill‑building workshops, and opportunities for kids to meet and learn from current Flyers players. The program’s growth over the past decade reflects the organization’s dedication to building a strong pipeline of talent while also giving back to the city that supports the Flyers every season.
For Flyers fans, the 10th anniversary of the program is a chance to celebrate the team’s commitment to both the sport and the community. The program’s return will be highlighted in upcoming events and clinics, giving families a chance to see the Tippett brothers in action and to learn more about the skills that make the Flyers a competitive team on the ice.
As the Flyers prepare for another exciting season, the “Flyers Learn to Play” program—now in its 10th year—remains a key part of the organization’s mission to promote hockey, build community, and inspire the next generation of Flyers supporters.
