CAMP PROGRAM (AUGUST 16 – 20, 2010)
The Western Mass. Hockey School welcomes hockey players of all abilities, ages 7 to 15. The primary focus of this day camp will be on speed and skill development with an emphasis on three main goals. The first is that hockey has to be fun. If this is achieved, all other aims will fall into place. The second goal is to maximize the individual potential of each player through well founded scientific, physiological, and psychological precepts. The third goal is to encourage respect for others-without which there can be no success. All on ice and off ice curriculums are professionally prepared and designed to elevate the play of each participant.
