Mite Development Program

The Mite Development Program is for 2015, 2016, 2017 birth years.   The mite age group is a critical time in development and is where foundational skills are first instilled.

Players are split into 4 small groups based on age and level.  Each session players rotate through 4 stations. From a skills view, everything in hockey can be related back to 2 things.  A player’s ability to skate and handle the puck.  These 2 things are the foundation for all other skills. For that reason, all practices & drills will focus on skating, puck handling and puck control skills in an effort to build these skills as well as a foundation for future skill development. 

This program is Tuesdays at Holiday Rinks.  Group #1 is 4:45 – 5:45pm, Group #2 is 5:45 – 6:45pm.  Players are allowed to sign up for both groups if they choose too.  Note that both groups are the same practice plan.  There is no discount for signing up for both groups.
