THIS IS THE BEST OF BOTH.

This camp blends all the best aspects of our Speed and Elite camps into one total program. The player will be challenged from the outset of each and every day. They will be grouped according to skill level. This will allow us the ability to maximize every skaters growth and potential.

This camp is a full 3 hrs. of on-ice and 2 hrs. of off-ice per day. There will be little downtime for the player enrolled in this camp. Our on-ice program will emphasize proper execution of every drill. Our instructors will be focused on the players in this camp with rigid attention to form and proper technique. The off-ice will challenge and promote stamina and core strength. It will also integrate each player into a structured series of uniquely developed drills that blend off-ice shooting, resistance training, plyometrics and core fitness.

If you are looking to work on your total game in a challenging, competitive and highly motivating environment, than this is the camp for you! On-ice curriculum will consist of:

		EDGEWORK - important for proper skating technique and balance through turns
		QUICKNESS - stresses quick feet and proper weight shift for changing speeds
		TAKE-OFFS - proper technique for maximum power
		ELONGATING STRIDE TECHNIQUE - enabling proper balance and a longer skating stride to allow for the changing of speed on the fly
		PUCKHANDLING - emphasis on getting hands away from body and allowing for puck control 180 degrees around the body
		PASSING - emphasis on utilizing weight shift, core strength and proper stick control
		SHOOTING - proper technique will be addressed both on and off the ice
		PUCK PROTECTION - utilizing one’s body to protect the puck from a defender
		GAMES IN A CONFINED AREA - emphasis on puck control and movement in a tight area.
THERE WILL BE NO FULL-ICE GAMES IN THIS PROGRAM!
