Summer Camps 2021

Summary

This summer Draft Choice is running has cancelled 2 weeks of Specialty Programs.

This is the One of a Kind “Elite” OFFENSIVE Defenceman’s Camp. This camp is about being an OFFENSIVE defenceman. Seeing your child just shoot the puck around the boards or up the walls without looking is what we focus on “Preventing!” We want that first pass to be made in all situations whether it is a “Quick Pass” or a “Skate to Open Lanes” pass! We want the players to be able to make confident escapes with “TWO STEPS” to Open Ice so they can get the puck to the forwards and create something from nothing! All skating mobility strides with and without the puck will be technically reviewed and corrected to maximize Speed, Agility and Balance! This class separates your child from the rest of the “D” on the team.
The Total Player I and II Programs are the foundation of our technical skills and skating. Having the players learn the game and improving skills using a “Consistent Language” creates an inviting environment for students to learn and benefit from. These classes begin with our basic skating fundamentals and develop into our full stride and arms progressions. Both sessions follow similar progressions but the Advanced TP II class obviously is run at a much higher level overall challenging the skaters to develop their own “Balance System!” As well as strides we incorporate pucks and our European “on Ice’ equipment to further enhance their individual skills. Our Spring boards, Skating Wheels, Parallel Bars, Bungees and Attack Triangles are all integrated to create a Technical, Challenging, and Fun programs for the players.
Our Teaching is Consistent!
The language we speak, the demonstrations modelling what we are teaching, and the veteran staff we have all provide Consistent, Corrective Feedback! Our staff go out of our way to offer both positive and constructive feedback to all the skaters to make sure they all understand the process in getting to where they want to go! There are NO “Puck-pushers” on the ice!
Most of us are TEACHERS, and this is what we do for a living!

We hope to have an opportunity to teach your child in helping them get one step closer to their dreams!

Spring Team or Group Specialized Training

The Draft choicce Team is available for spring training during the months of May and June following tryouts. Rather than play spring hockey to get 20 more games to play, take this time to develop the skills necessary to beome a more effective player. We can run a program that build on individual skills along with forward & defensive game concepts tactics. DCH staff will put the players through a variety of Technical Skating & Puckhandling drills. These classes are very progressive and all of the skills & positional concepts are brought together at the end of each class with Quick Feet & Thinking Flow Drills. This great program refines your skating, improves your stickhandling moves, and teaches positional game concept knowledge.
