Internal Program Descriptions
Mini-Mites:
The Mini-Mite Program is designed as a first introduction to the sport of ice hockey and sets the foundation for future success and fun in the sport. This program is for players 6 years of age and under and assumes players are able to stand, stride, and get up on their own.
Fun games and skill development is the primary focus of the program. We utilize the USA Hockey Skill Development Program, which at this age emphasizes skating, stopping, turning, puck handling, and passing. It is a proven, learn to play teaching curriculum. Boys and girls learn through participating in practice drills and informal games.
Our goal is to develop:
• A fun learning environment;
• A safe and positive experience for the child’s first contact with club hockey;
• A fundamentally sound hockey player (which is the key to their future enjoyment and success in ice hockey)
The program meets twice a week on weekends only.
The Mini-Mite program runs from early October through mid/late February.
