Thank you for all the hours you have put in over the years. You have had a big role in my hockey success and helping me to become a better person. You are a great coach and a better man. Thank you again for all the help.

This note is a long time in coming and, although I’ve said it now many time, I wanted put it in writing so you could share with parents…
We couldn’t have imagined how great an experience it would be. From the minute our son Daniel walked into the locker room, the coaches were attentive, and on the ice they were cheerful, encouraging and motivating. Even though he knew no one there, he was made to feel part of the team and inspired to push himself. I could see him smiling out on the ice. Every day, we saw him improve and gain confidence. By the end of the week he became a real hockey player. Two months after camp, we made a major family move to a new state, and one of his first priorities was to find the best hockey team to join. Quite literally, hockey opened up a whole new world to him. It has given him confidence and helped him make a new community for himself. And he is having fun. We couldn’t be more appreciative. Thank you! See you again this summer.

Thank you for helping me to become the player I am today. Thanks to your work I understand what it takes and what we need to do to go after my dreams of playing college and pro hockey. I couldn’t have done it without you.

I have two young girls playing hockey and you are true mentors, passionate for the game and success of players. You genuinely care, and the players respond and respect you. You encourage players to challenge themselves yet in a fun but competitive atmosphere. Exceptional knowledge of the game that is incorporated into drills that not only develop the players’ skills but are directly applicable to game situations.

Ollie has attended the camps for seven years and has benefited greatly from the coaching. Last season, Ollie played prep school hockey as a freshman and coaches worked with him on using his body effectively, learning how to both give and receive a check, and how to balance physical play with his skating and stick handling skills. Ollie also worked tirelessly to help him improve his shot! As a result, Ollie was drafted to the USHL and is looking forward to another summer at camp to hone these skills.

The staff is genuinely interested in their players and take the time to get to know them. They are adept at figuring out how to tailor instruction to each player's specific needs. Players have fun even though they are working hard. Coaches hold players accountable, being tough on players when it's needed to be, but praising them when they work hard and succeed. Coaches serve as positive role models and work hard to instill hockey discipline. My son's hockey skills, have improved greatly and seeing him carry the same lessons to other areas of his life (in school, with friends, and at home) have been priceless. My son can't wait to attend camp again this summer.

The staff has worked with my son for 4 years and there has been a noticeable improvement in my son’s performance every year and after every session. My son was a good player, but this has helped him go to the next level. Focus on the details and “doing things correctly”, and learning how to deal with the mental side of hockey have made a big difference. My son improved to one of the better High School players in the State. He was challenged to be his best and to keep reaching for new heights, and he was given praise to help boost the players confidence in themselves, which many other programs do not do. I highly recommend this camp to help your player reach their potential.
