7.5 HOURS ON ICE TRAINING / 5 HOURS DRYLAND TRAINING @ LANGLEY TWIN RINKS

MAX 12 PLAYERS

This is the program where defence can target the essential skills of the game, specific for defence. Too often the D are not able to work on the parts of the game they need to work on. The camp will start with critical skating components for D and work on the following essential skating skills:

● Backwards quick starts and acceleration

● Backward stride

● Pivots and transition

● Lateral mobility and agility

When players have established a good skating foundation, we will advance the program into position specific skills:

• Gap Control
• Angling
• Defending 1-1
• Defending 2-1
• Break out pass variations
• Point shots
• Battle drills

DRYLAND TRAINING

After each ice session, the players will work with Impact Hockey strength and conditioning experts off the ice. All of the dryland sessions will be age specific and push and challenge the players to get faster, quicker and more explosive. The dryland portion of the program will incorporate lots of body weight and partner exercises. The kids will work on coordination, core strength and balance in a fun and challenging environment. All of the dryland training will be hockey specific movements and exercises.
