Powerskating & Skills Program
Program Overview
NEW for the 2025–2026 season, our Powerskating & Skills Program joins the TOP Hockey player pathway. Designed for 2016–2019 birth years, the program blends professional coaching with a curriculum focused on powerskating and core hockey skills.
Sessions start with a fast-paced powerskating block (stride, crossovers, backward skating, posture, edges). Players then rotate through small-group skills stations to combine skating with shooting, passing, game situations, puck races, and more.
