Registration is now open for Central Select Checking and Body Contact clinics. Open to birth years 2011-2014.
These clinics are an intro to intermediate and advanced techniques that provide players with an opportunity for professional instruction on the skills of awareness, angling, body position and body contact. Each session focuses on helping players develop their confidence in physical situations and
reduce the likelihood of injury.
The advanced sessions will meet the USA Hockey requirement for Bantam players (2011-2012 birth years). The intermediate sessions (2013-2014 birth years) ensure instruction needed for the current level of play as a PeeWee, but implement awareness and instruction to prevent injury in upcoming Bantam seasons.
Our program will allow players to become more comfortable and confident in physical situations. Body contact is a huge part of hockey and is a skill just like skating, passing and shooting. You can’t play this game scared, and it’s imperative that players learn how to give and receive a check properly to prevent injury. Coach Mike Pulkinen and his experienced team will educate skaters the safety and aggressiveness of the game, as they advance to higher levels of youth hockey.
