Team Camp

August 22nd to August 27th, 2010

Camp Fee: $625 per player (complete teams only)

Our team camp concept allows coaching staffs to spend quality time with their players, both on and off the ice. Team building is essential toward success and this camp provides a setting which eliminates the many distractions that otherwise exist. It's the perfect scenario for coaches to begin molding their team.

The facilities and intimacy of the Cushing campus helps create an atmosphere for the players and coaches to bond. With a structured schedule in place, coaches are able to implement their philosophies and systems. The detailed weekly schedule will ensure that the proper time is dedicated for each area of the game. In addition, our experienced staff works closely with the coaches to share philosophies.

Prior to the season, many coaches and organizations lack the time to adequately prepare. Many teams are forced to schedule a tournament to begin their season without holding quality practices necessary to gauge evaluate their rosters.

We are confident that players and coaches will benefit immensely from their training camp experience. You will begin your season with a better understanding of the game as well as respect for the preparation needed to be successful. We look forward to working with your organization.

Camp highlights: 3.5 hours of ice time per day, team building, games, literature, a field trip, camp shirt, and socks.
