OVERVIEW

Our Learn to Play program is our entry-level program for aspiring hockey players. Players should have successfully completed several learn-to-skate sessions and be ready for the next step in their development before entering learn-to-play, as skating is the most important aspect of the game.
This program will focus on improving all aspects of skating as well as introducing players to basic hockey skills. 

Perfect for the brand-new hockey player who desires to learn the sport in a fun, active, and teaching environment.  Instruction is focused on the fundamentals of hockey: skating, passing, shooting and stickhandling. Practices will focus on constant movement and increased puck touches. Players will learn the proper way to hold their stick, correct hockey position, hockey stops, and a basic introduction to backward skating. Instruction and drills/games are designed to be 100% FUN.
