Checking Camps
There are many variations of checking camps and we have them covered.
Angling Camp
Are you looking to be a better defender or maybe become more proficient on the forecheck? One thing these both have in common is thier reliance on a players ability to angle and get a good body position. In this camp players will learn how to properly time their skating, take ice, and to seal off lanes against opposing players. They will also learn various skating techniques such as glide turns, crossovers and staircasing which will help players become quicker and more effective when angling. One of the most important qualities of players these days is the ability to play a 200 foot game and this camp will help get you one step closer.
Puck Protection and Takeaway Camp
Having an active or good stick is a great quality in a hockey player, in this camp we will teach the players to use their stick to poke pucks and lift sticks in order to create take-ways and gain an advantage. After gaining this advantage the players will learn to make plays and create scoring opportunities.
On the flip side we need to learn to protect the puck, draw in defenders and create offense. Players will learn where to carry the puck in specific scenarios and how to use their skating and body to protect the puck and slide it into soft areas to maintain possession.
Body Checking Camp
The Pro Player Checking Camp will get you ready for the upcoming season, whether you want a refresher or will be playing with body contact for the first time, this camp will be a great fit for you. In the camp we will be teaching the players how to both give and receive a hit both effectively and in a safe manner. We will also cover bumping, angling and flushing, re-attacks and more to help your player better understand their surroundings and become more confident in their game.
