Recruiting Info
Hockey
The Western Washington University Hockey Team is one of the premier club sports on campus. We’re proud to call the Bellingham Sportsplex our home and with at least 300-500 fans per night, we’re one of the most attended teams at the school. We’re on a mission to turn Western into a hockey school, and with your help, we can make that happen.
Tryouts
Tryouts take place in early September at the Bellingham Sportsplex. The camp is open to any players and consists of a practice and a few scrimmages. While not mandatory, it gives prospective players a chance to get to know the team and familiarize themselves with campus and Bellingham.
Education
With more than 200 academic programs, Western Washington University delivers a top-tier education and is ranked #4 for the most beautiful campuses in the Pacific Northwest (though we all know it’s #1). Western is committed to academic excellence, environmental justice, and sustainability, and with specialties in Environmental Science, Education, Biology, and Business, there’s truly something for everyone here.
Bellingham
Bellingham is a charming and vibrant city located in the northwest corner of Washington State, near the Canadian border. With its stunning natural scenery, lively arts and culture scene, and friendly community, it's no wonder that Bellingham is consistently ranked as one of the best places to live in the United States. The city is surrounded by mountains, forests, and waterways, making it an outdoor enthusiast's paradise. Bellingham also has a thriving downtown area with a wide range of shops, restaurants, and galleries, as well as a strong commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship. We know you’ll love it as much as we do!
