Fee

The fee for either Option A (5 sessions) or Option B (5 sessions) is $150.00, which includes a special Hawks #CAMPSZN jersey.

Instruction

The Hawks are excited that Lyle Van Wieren will be running the sessions along with other amazing Hawks volunteers and coaches. Lyle has been coaching and involved with the Hawks organization for eight years and has four kids spanning all age categories, so we are fortunate to have him well into the future.

Focus

• Our aim will be to focus on developing the individual skillsets of each player, in preparation for evaluations and the upcoming season.

• The conditioning will be accomplished by making the best use of ice time, where the players won't have to wait in long lines, and the camp will be run with lots of short bursts of energy followed by brief rests.

• Each age group has been split into two groups of five sessions, spread out over two weeks to maximize rest and availability to all who wish to attend.

• The skillsets applicable to each age group will be carefully addressed during every session, with plenty of opportunity for puck-work.

• Our coaches are committed to making this experience fun and engaging for all participants. Please be assured that this is not a boot camp. Our goal is to help every player develop a love for the game.

• Due to the limited number of spots available per age group, a well-balanced coach-to-player ratio is ensured and everyone will have an equal opportunity to participate, while keeping the costs reasonable.

Our goal is to have as many of our Hawks skaters attend these sessions as possible. Therefore, we are requesting that parents sign up their child for only one of the 5 session options available at this time (Option A or Option B).

If you wish to sign your child up for all 10 sessions, there will be an option to do so at a later date, providing there are registration spots still available. An announcement will be made and   

Registration for Hawks Conditioning Camp can be done online when you register for the season. Registration opens June 1 in Spordle.
