AIA Named NYSAHA Association of the Year!

We are thrilled to share that at Saturday's New York State Amateur Hockey Association (NYSAHA) Awards and Hall of Fame Ceremony, the Aurora Ice Association (AIA) was named the Larry McCauley New York State Association of the Year! This prestigious award recognizes exceptional leadership, innovation, and commitment to amateur hockey and community recreation across New York State.

They say an organization is only as strong as its people, and ours are truly incredible. Thank you to our players, coaches, managers, volunteers, and parents for an amazing year. Between our hockey house and travel programs, four Western New York Amateur Hockey League Division titles, and capturing our first New York State Championship, East Aurora Beast Hockey had an exceptional 2025-26 season. More than the trophies, we are so proud of the community of teamwork, growth, and fun we've built together.

Thank you for making the AIA family so special. We accept this award with immense gratitude and a renewed commitment to our young athletes, both on and off the ice.

While we’re enjoying the summer, we look forward to welcoming everyone back this fall to a major facility upgrade at Classic Rink that our players and families will enjoy for years to come!
