MARCH BREAK HOCKEY CAMP
Overview
Our March Break Hockey Camp at Joshua’s Creek Arena offers a great mix of skill development and gameplay, providing campers the chance to learn Canada's favorite game in a fun and enthusiastic environment. During on-ice sessions players will rotate through different stations and small-area games, working on building fundamentals and improving their skills. Off the ice, players will participate in a variety of multi-sport activities, building general athleticism and creating well-rounded athletes.
Our goal with the hockey camps is to help each camper reach their potential and continue to learn regardless of where they are in their hockey journey. Whether your child is just beginning to fall in love with the game or well on their way, our coaches are excellent at challenging players of all skill levels, ensuring everyone is pushed outside of their comfort zone and reaching new heights.
Programming Notes
March Break Camp features 2 hours of on-ice development each day. Both groups will be on the ice at the same time but will be grouped by age and ability to ensure players with similar skill levels are competing against one another during the week.
Please note the minimum age for this camp is 5 years old. All players MUST be able to skate around freely on the ice at all times. This is not a Learn-to-Skate or Learn-to-Play camp.
