U9, U11 and U13 Advanced Summer Camps

The Advanced Summer Camps are geared towards kids who played U9 Divs 1-2, U11 Divs AA - 3 and U13 AA - Div 3.  If your child is a first year U9 player and you felt their skill level was near the top of their Timbits team they are welcome to take part in the U9 Camp.  These camps focus on the fundamentals and will focus primarily on Power Skating, Edge Control, Puck Handling, Stick handling, Small Area Games and Shooting.  The ice sessions will have a balance of both full ice and station based drills providing a balance that allows for repetition leading to increased skill acquisition.

Each day will consist of two off ice sessions; one team building activity and one off ice conditioning session.  During the team building activities we will focus on leadership and goal setting activities.  The off ice conditioning sessions are geared towards increasing the players agility, balance, coordination, and speed.  It will ultimately make each player stronger and as a result they will increase their on ice skills.  This camp will provide lots of opportunity for personal growth on and off the ice. These camps will be lots of fun and are guaranteed to prepare our participants for the 2025-2026 Season.
