  • Program runs from April – June.
  • Open to both Rec & Rep level players looking to take next step in hockey development.
  • Experienced LGS coaches work with players in ratios of 6-8:1 for individual skill development
  • Our coaches focus on catching players doing things right to facilitate positive reinforcement.
  • We value FUN above all else!
Great preparation of practice plans! Good small group ratio of coaches to players allowing for a lot of attention to each player. My child had a superb time with the coaching team and teammates!
