This program is designed so players can enhance their individual skills in a fun filled environment. More ice time equals improved skating, puck handling, passing, and shooting skills!
2 20-minute running time periods. Full ice games. No checking. Players change every minute by the sound of the buzzer. Teams are chosen by the Arena. This is a fun and unique program for kids to be creative. Rosters and schedule will be posted about 2 weeks prior to program starting.
