Mite Development Program

The Mite Development Program (2017, 2018 birth years) 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.  There is no discount for signing up for both groups.

Players are split into 4 small groups based on age and level.  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. 

NEW!  Players now have the option to add a second day of ice to their sign up. Thursdays 4:15 – 5:15pm.  Thursdays will be a fun, game-competition based day.  See the Mite Games & Competitions (click here) for all details!
