Introducing Junior Railers Equipment Marketplace

Welcome to the Junior Railers Equipment Marketplace on Facebook.

We created this group to give hockey families in our community a place to buy, sell, trade and donate used hockey gear. Hockey is an incredible sport, but it can also be an expensive one — especially with how quickly kids grow and how often equipment needs to be replaced.

This group makes it easier for families to connect, save money, and keep good gear in use rather than sitting in storage. Whether you’re looking for your child’s next pair of skates, trying to pass along gear that no longer fits, or just hoping to help another player get what they need, this is the place to do it!

Please feel free to post your equipment, share with other families, and help grow the game one piece of gear at a time!

Philip Coleman Scholarship Fund

The Philip Coleman Scholarship Fund was established in 2021 to provide financial assistance to Junior Railers families who can't afford the full yearly fee. Phil believed if a kid wanted to play hockey there should be a path for that child. Click HERE to donate and help make hockey a sport for everyone!
