Extra Ice and Dryland
We will be sharing one hour of ice each week with the Peewee BB team. For the most part, we will alternate weeks with them but there will be times where we share the ice for skill development sessions. In addition, the team will be participating in some dryland activities throughout the year. These will be scheduled at the beginning of each month around our scheduled games and practices. These will be a mix of training, off-ice hockey related activities, video sessions, and hockey homework. I want to stress that these will be scheduled as needed instead of a weekly scheduled time. In speaking with last season's coaches, they felt that the schedule may have been too busy early in the season and I want to ensure that we have a good balance of rest and learning.
Team Fees
In addition to the rep fees, the team fee for the season will be $550 per player. I am aware that this amount is more than past year's but after speaking with some other parents it was decided that the addition of a 5th tournament, team coat, and extra ice provided value.
Do not hesitate to contact me at 268-1557 or [email protected] if you have any questions. I look forward to seeing everyone at the arena on August 25th.
