Selecting a Hockey School

When hockey season comes to an end, parents and players will consider various development camp opportunities to participate in during the off-season. Spring and summer are the best times of the year to positively influence the development of your player and enhance their skillset. It’s important to consider which programs can increase a child’s confidence, while also bringing out their full potential.

What makes a good development camp?

Respectable schools will focus on hockey-specific skating, technique instruction, individual skill development, player development, and practical teaching (not just “doing”). It’s also important to look for a school that promotes small groups of players (low player to instructor ratio), and most importantly, schools that have experienced, skilled instructors.

Quality instructors are, without a doubt, the most important factor when selecting a hockey school. The most productive learning environment is when players can first see a skill illustrated, hear it explained, and then be given the opportunity to perform it themselves.
