About Us
The New England Warriors are a chapter of the USA Warriors, The USA, and New England Warriors are programs designed for the rehabilitation of wounded, ill and injured service members and veterans. We are a private, non-profit organization dedicated to educating, training, motivating, and encouraging the formation of “USA Warrior Hockey Programs” locally and nationally while encouraging Active Duty Military, Reserves, and Veterans 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.
In 2014, Christy “Icebox” Gardner and Ian “Battleship” Ramsdell decided that upon Ian’s medical retirement, they would create a sister chapter of the Warrior program. In February 2015, Christy, Ian and the newly formed New England Warriors, played their first official game in Vermont against the Ice Vets.
