This program focuses on teaching the "technical skills / fundamentals" of hockey and instilling the love for the game to the young players.
Yes, creating a culture where young players want to and look forward to going to the rink, learning, and having fun on the ice!
The program curriculum consists of:
- 60 % Power Skating
- 20 % Hockey Development Skills (i.e., Puck Control, Passing & Shooting)
- 20 % Fun Skating Games / Scrimmages
60 % Power skating:
The curriculum will consist mainly of:- Proper Hockey Stance & Stick Length
- Balancing Drills
- Forward Edge Control
- Forward Starting & Stopping
- Forward Foot speed
- Forward Striding
- Glide Turns
- Lateral Movement & Crossovers
- Backward Edge Control, Starts & Stops
20 % Hockey Development Skills
- Variations of Stationary & Moving Puck Control
- Stationary & Moving Passing (Both Forehand & Backhand)
- Stationary & Shooting in Stride (Both Forehand & Backhand)
20 % Fun Skating Games & Scrimmages:
- Each on Ice Session there will be 3 or 4 skating games for the players to practice their skating skills in a fun learning environment.
Our Teaching Philosophy:
- We pride ourselves on ‘teaching” skating and hockey fundamentals.
- Creating a positive and fun learning environment / culture for each player.
- It doesn’t matter if the age or skill levels of the players vary in the program.
- It’s “individual skill” development - the player and the skill drill!
- An older age or larger size player does not necessary equate to better skating and hockey skills!
- Players will be grouped into subgroups / stations on the ice based on skill levels / abilities.
- Excellent player to instructor ratio - 5 to 1.
Ideally suited for but not restricted to:
- Minor hockey 2nd yr U7 - U9 level players - who are eager to improve their technical skills, learn good hockey habits, play the game better and have fun!
- Must be able to skate forwards – this program is ‘NOT A LEARN TO SKATE PROGRAM’ - but an “INTRO TO HOCKEY” development program
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.
