Skill Development
Specialized Development: U9 to U20 Tiers
We recognize that every developmental stage requires a unique approach. Our curriculum is strictly tailored to the physical and psychological needs of each age group:
U9 – U11 (Initiation & Skill Foundation): Focuses on core skating mechanics, puck control, and small-area games to foster a genuine love for the game.
U13 – U17 (The Golden Age of Skill Acquisition): Intensifies tactical awareness, introductory body contact, and positional play to build high-level game IQ.
U18 – U20 (High-Performance & Junior Transition): Advanced tactical execution, specialized strength and conditioning, and preparation for professional academies or high-level collegiate hockey.

The word hockey itself is of unknown origin. One supposition is that it is a derivative of hoquet, a Middle French word for a shepherd’s stave. The curved, or “hooked” ends of the sticks used for hockey would indeed have resembled these staves. Another supposition derives from the known use of cork bungs.
