Session Overview
In each skill development session, players in our program will receive structured on-ice training from professional coaches. During the session, players rotate through the following activities: Skating, Game-Based Skill Development, and Small Area Games. This progression from technical instruction to constraint-based games to gameplay helps participants learn and master the fundamental skills of hockey faster, while also helping to foster a love for the sport. Our programs are designed to align with the latest recommendations of Hockey Canada’s Long-Term Athletic Development Model.
