About Us

The Houston Wild is affiliated with the Houston
Junior Aeros Hockey Association (HJAHA), which
was initially formed in the 1980’s. HJAHA is
governed by a set of bylaws and rules that are
managed by a volunteer board of directors with
representatives from each of its 14 teams (Mite to
Midget Major). The most skilled HJAHA teams play
at the AA level of the Peewee, Bantam, Midget Minor,
and Midget Major age divisions as the “Houston
Wild”.

Wild teams participate in the AA divisions of NTXHL, and play in AAA and AA invitational
tournaments throughout the U.S. and Canada. Houston Wild teams will play 45-50 games this
season, which includes league play (~25 games) as well as invitational tournaments in Chicago,
Colorado, Hershey, Phoenix, Pittsburgh, and Vancouver to name a few. Houston Wild teams have
won 2 State Championships and 5 League Championships, while HJAHA teams have won over
30 League Championships.

More information about the Houston Wild and HJAHA can be found at www.junioraeros.com.

This year’s Wild Midget prep team began the season with May tryouts, a trip to the Chowder Cup
Junior tournament, then routine practices in August. The team touts lots of experience and
success based on winning the State Championships two years in a row.

This “Wild Bunch” offers balanced scoring throughout its three forward lines; stingy defense by
talented and sizable players; and top tier goaltending. Their other attributes include: quick, agile
skating; deft passing; and a strong sense of teamwork.
