In this 7-week program, the U11/U13 players will:  

• Effectively learn how to use proper puck protection techniques to beat their opponent -  it's all about body positioning...  build a wall & shield the puck while facing pressure from an opponent

• Work on correcting & improving their Shooting Mechanics for wristshots, backhands.  Snapshots & slapshots will be covered (time-permitting).

• Increase their knowledge on the best shot selection based on the scenario! 

• Work on Deceptive Scoring: learn fakes, dekes, alter shooting angles to create open net space.

• Those in Defence will also learn deceptive puck handling, read & react to pressure, proper puck retrievals, manage gap control

proper angling & pinning opponent to the boards, develop good habits to protect the house

• Engage in clean physical battles, be gritty to win loose pucks & battle effectively in high-traffic "dirty areas" of the ice (slot, crease, boards) 

• Gain confidence while engaging in the Small-Area Battles: Dynamic 1v1 and 2v2 situations, to battle effectively along the boards, down low, & net front. 

Steal pucks from opponents & be Battle Ready!
