The American Hockey Coaches Association was formed in May of 1947 in Boston, MA, by a handful of college coaches concerned about the game they loved. It has grown to include professional, junior, high school, and youth hockey coaches, as well as referees, administrators, sales representatives, journalists, and fans. It is open to men and women alike. Perhaps the best way to understand the AHCA is to read its formal goals, as written in the AHCA Constitution:

The object of this Association shall be:

1. To help maintain the highest possible standards in hockey and the hockey profession.
2. To discuss matters of mutual interest.
3. To submit to the proper organizations, suggestions for the improvement of hockey.
4. To discuss various phases of hockey.
5. To place at the disposal of coaches sources of hockey information.
6. To work together for the improvement of conditions in American hockey.
7. To have a representative group of hockey people before whom hockey problems of general interest may be discussed and to whom others may be referred for the friendly interchange of ideas.
8. To establish good fellowship and social contact.
9. To maintain high educational standards when coaching the game of ice hockey
