Superior Stickhandling - Session focuses on helping students become more confident and creative with the puck. First, we teach students the proper wrist roll, hand extension, and flexibility skills they need to control and shoot the puck. Students then learn proper stick handling techniques through focused instruction and innovative stationary drills.
 
Power Skating / Edge Control - During this session, students are able focus on learning their edges, proper use of their edges, and the use of power skating. Students learn how to become faster, stronger, and more agile skaters. Skaters are timed periodically to monitor improvement.
 
Sniper School - Break down the techniques students need to develop more power and accuracy while shooting. We teach the wrist shot, snap shot, and backhand and slap shot. We also emphasize weight transfer, body control, flexibility, and accuracy to enable students to become more efficient with every scoring opportunity. Students will shoot over 100 pucks.
 
Tape to Tape Passing - This session will be designed to help a player receive and make good passes. Passing situations will include stationary, forward, backwards, and transitional skating all while making a good pass and being able receive a pass properly.
 
Total Development - During this clinic, students are able to focus on individual skill development in all aspects of the game. Fundamental skills like skating, stick handling, shooting, passing, and checking are taught during each specialized hour, first through controlled instruction and then through repeated drills that enhance understanding and mastery. Finally, students are taught to incorporate the skills they have learned into game situations-and become more complete hockey players.
 
Condition Skating - During this camp, students will focus on the offensive and defensive side of the puck as a forward. Students will learn how to create passing lanes, offensive forechecking, puck cycling and proper back checking. Students will also learn how to execute 2 on 1 and 3 on 2 opportunities.

Proper Body Leverage / Contact - During our session, students focus on improving specialized checking and shooting skills and building a more confident game. Students first learn how to deliver and receive a body check. Afterwards, they engage in a variety of battling drills where they are encouraged to be more confident and aggressive in game situations.
