Parent and Player Hockey Clinics

QUICK LINKS: Registration | Important Details | Instructor | Contact Information

Parent and Player Hockey Clinics focus on parent/player interaction.  Clinics give parents an array of tools to help their kids on the ice.  In addition to excellent hockey instruction, clinics aim to be a great bonding experience.  Parents will gain an appreciation for just how hard their kids work on the ice.  Kids will no doubt look up to their parents for walking a mile in their shoes – or skates in this case.
