This is a specialized power skating program which focuses mainly on 3 core skating components.
Technical Skating:
- Extreme Edges (50%),
- Explosive Skating (40%)
Tactical Skating:
- Evasive / Tactical Skating (10%)
Resistance Training Skating:
- Parachutes
The program is designed to help players acquire stronger edges and generate more quickness & power in their skating.
The curriculum consists of:
- Session warm - ups emphasizing evasive / tactical skating & puck control
- Teaching game deception skating and puck creativity
- Core 1 - Extreme edge control (forward & backward) to enhance balance, stability & generate improved leg strength for explosive starts.
- Lots of challenging edge work!
- Core 2 - Explosive skating - consisting of acceleration, quick feet & power
- Lots of drills to enhance short distance skating i.e. quickness!
- Core 3 - Parachute resistance training will be used on occasions to develop leg strength & power in the player’s striding.
Ideally suited for but not restricted to:
- 2nd yr U11 divisions 2 - AAA, U13 divisions 4 - AAA & U15 - U18 players who are “SERIOUS” about improving their skating skills and getting to the next level of hockey.
- Players will be “pushed by the design of the program” to get out of their comfort levels to another level of skating.
- Being an older age or a larger size player - does not necessary equate to better skills!
- Players in the program will be divided into sub – groups based on ability.
Note:
- The on ice curriculum may vary - depending on the overall group’s skill level. Therefore, some of the more basic drills may be repeated or more advanced drills incorporated / accelerated to maximize overall players’ development.
- Excellent player to instructor ratio - 5 to 1.
