Summer Small Group Skill Sessions

Summer is the time for each player to get better individually and develop skills typically not covered in the regular season. Small group training is the best way to do that. These are half ice sessions with a maximum of 12 players per session. Players will get a lot of 1 on 1 attention/teaching and repetitions to maximize practice and learning. Players can sign up for as many or as few of sessions as you would like; as well as any combination of sessions.

Players choose what session dates they would like to attend and have the option to attend one or both session(s) offered as sessions are offered back to back.  Please specify what session players would like to sign up for in email.  Sign up is first come first serve for all sessions.

NEW! This summer we have split our shooting & stickhandling sessions into separate sessions.  We have done this so sessions can focus more on those specific skills and allow players more reps and attention on those skills.  For the Pewee, Bantam, Midget group we have also added Battling and Puck Protection Skill Sessions to the summer program.  In addition, we have also added Wednesday Skill Sessions to the schedule.  So this summer players can choose between Sunday and/or Wednesday dates!

Cost per single session is $25/player 

5-10 total sessions price drops to $22/session 

11-14 total sessions price drops to $20/session 

15 or more total sessions price drops to $18/session

Overspeed Skating Groups- Purpose of the overspeed skating group is to get players faster and quicker with and without the puck. Hockey is not played in a straight line, the best players are able to use their edges to cut sharper, maintain their balance all with full control of the puck. This group will focus on edge, balance, forward to backward speed, change of direction skills (turns- stop/starts) and foot/hand coordination skills to push players out of their comfort zone.

Stickhandling and Puck Skill Groups- Purpose of the stickhandling groups is to learn proper stickhandling techniques as well as a variety of techniques and skills.  Skills to be addressed are quick dribble, faking, toe drag skills, stickhandling range skills, combination of stickhandling skills, puck handling in small areas and through traffic as well as moves such as front fakes, push-pull, toe drag, backhand toe drags and others!

Shooting Skill Groups- To score more goals you have to have a good shot and possess the ability to release your shot in many different ways. Examples of skills to be learned throughout the summer (age dependent) are: basic shooting mechanics (wrist, snap, slap shots), changing angles, shooting out of move/fakes (backhand & forehand skills), one-timers, catch & release skills, shooting out of a crossover and shooting in stride.

Battling/Puck Protection Sessions- Protecting the puck is one of the most important skills in hockey.  Sessions will focus on players ability to protect the puck in variety of situations, as well how to use your skating skills to manipulate/read forecheckers to create space.  Players that understand puck protection and how create space for themselves are the ones who have that ability to create something out nothing and/or are able to maintain puck possession until a lane or play opens up.  Skills/Area to be addressed:  Neutral Zone Retrievals, Breakout Retrievals, Offensive Zone Retrievals, How to read/manipulate opposing players, Net Drive Skills, General Puck protection Skills, Puck protection Skating Skills.  (Only offered for Pewee, Bantam, Midget age group)
