You are making the jump from non-contact to contact hockey. The way the game is played from here on is different than you are used to. This can make some players apprehensive about the next level. Our Contact Camps are designed to take the unknown out of that next step and provide players with the tools and skills to confidently play contact hockey. The week will progress from learning how to angle properly through to how to initiate contact with the purpose of separating player from puck. Learn the techniques required to protect yourself and to use body contact to your advantage in a safe manner. What we focus on: • Technical breakdown of initiating and receiving body contact • Progressive drills are designed to build confidence with contact. • Positioning, angling and stick techniques taught to separate the puck from opposing players. • Board and open ice contact techniques taught in a controlled environment. • Evasive skating techniques • Spatial awareness, instruction of safe and danger areas. • Teaching a “Heads Up” mindset
