Location
We are very excited to introduce our first residential hockey camp outside the United States. Our overnight camp will be held at Kemptville College which is approximately 30 minutes south of Ottawa. Our residential hockey camp is open to males and females aged 8 - 17 years. Each player/goalie at camp will receive 20 hours of on-ice instruction along with a combination of off-ice instruction and nightly scheduled activities. The on-ice instruction will take place at the brand new Kemptville Arena while most of the off-ice activities will take place at the College itself.

Kemptville College boasts state of the art facilities. Each child will be housed in semi-private rooms. Each dorm floor boasts common areas which are well stocked with recreational amenities.

Meals will be prepared by the professional staff of the College. Each participant will receive 3 meals daily along with nightly snacks. Participants will enjoy the vast array of daily foods that will be available to all. Special meal considerations can be made with the camp director.

The general campus of Kemptville College boasts an array of sports fields along with a large gymnasium. Participants will also enjoy the local indoor pool along with the state of the art rink facilities and public theatre.

Instructional Program
Each player will receive 20 hours of on-ice instruction. Approximately 1/3 of the on-ice instruction will focus on skating development. Another 1/3 will be spent on puck skills. Players will undergo an extensive puck handling skills training. The final 1/3 of the on-ice program will be spent towards improving the other aspects important to the hockey player. This includes body contact, offensive and defensive skills and team development skills. At the end of camp each student will receive a detailed evaluation report. The off-ice component will include strength training, classroom lectures, aerobic/anaerobic training and sport development programs.
