About West Texas Warriors
The West Texas Warriors are an all-veteran hockey team operating under the Amarillo Veterans Hockey Association, a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
We compete in both sanctioned and non-sanctioned tournaments throughout the year, providing veterans with meaningful opportunities for teamwork, recreation, and personal growth. Hockey serves as a powerful outlet for stress relief, connection, and continued resilience after military service.
We are actively seeking sponsorships and community partners to help offset the costs of tournament fees, ice time, travel, and player equipment. These contributions directly support our veteran athletes and allow us to expand participation and maintain a high standard of competition.
