CLASS FORMAT

Our station-based format gives players the opportunity to learn the necessary skills in a safe and competitive environment. The action-packed practices keep the kids moving, engaged, and excited to back to the rink every week!

Each class starts with a 10-minute group warm-up with the whole class. Players are then divided into 4 groups based on age/skill level. Players will rotate through 4 stations every 10 minutes:

  1.  Skating Station - forwards and backwards skating, turning, stopping, crossovers, etc.
  2.  Game Station - soccer, tag, tic-tac-toe, guard the dog, etc
  3.  Passing/Shooting Station - includes a variety of puck-handling and shooting drills 
  4.  Scrimmage Station - always every player's favorite station!

The last 5 - 7 minutes will be a group game of either Torpedo Alley or Sharks and Minnows for all players to participate. This is always a fun activity for the kids, coaches, and the parents!

*If your child has never skated before and is between the ages of 4 - 6 years, please email LTPH Director, Barb Laughner, to identify which class to register: barbsk8pro@gmail.com
