U11 Winter ’24 Hockey E.D Program

The U11 Hockey E.D program is focused on skating, however, there will be more dynamic edgework techniques combined with positional instruction.

As players progress, we will incorporate positional concepts through drills and lectures. Adding-in the positional concepts will help make players well-rounded, and assist them in discovering which position suits them the best (forward or D).
