Total
Two Way I and Elite Defensemen Camps
Ask any coach what they look for in a hockey player. Most will say
a “Total Two-Way” Player who possesses good offensive and defensive
skills. Wayne Gagne has designed this program to introduce and reinforce
many of the Offensive “Puck Control” skills he used as a player to Set
Scoring Records and win the Scoring Titles in his Junior “B” and NCAA-CCHA
Leagues. The program includes: quick feet and hands skills development
with many escape maneuvers, reading the play and reacting with speed,
pinching to finish the man and gaining possession of the puck, and first
passes to create offensive plays. During each session zones will also
be created to teach defensive positioning, angling 1 on 1 situations,
as well as body contact.

Creative
Puckhandling
This program reviews Puckhandling
skills taught in our Total Player I class and progresses into our Advanced Deking Techniques. Here is where the students learn to use instinctive deking and shifting
movements in a lateral motion. Very few programs and coaches can teach
these specific, complex movements. Draft Choice prides itself in knowing
that all these moves will not only be taught, but demonstrated properly
as well. One foot shifting, one to two hands puck protection, one to
three move combinations, one hand and two hand acceleration, power turns
and outside quick feet crossovers are just a few of the maneuvers that
will be taught properly. As well as teaching all the moves the students
will also be walked through various game situations and directed as
to how to improve escapes with the puck using these instinctive deking
moves to generate offensive situations.

*NEW*
The Elite “Power Shooter” Program
The Ultimate desire for a hockey player is to score.
Having a great shot is the key to their success. This class is designed
to make sure your child is maximizing their “Power and Accuracy,” by
teaching and reinforcing proper shooting techniques. Shooting in motion,
stationary quick releases, crossing to open ice, and creating a solid
base with the “Power-Step” will all be a focus in this “Eyes-Up” program.
Strategies and vision are areas that need to be taught and not just
talked about. We will teach and model and use goalies to demonstrate
the best percentage shots to take for greater success.

The
Scoring Leader
This program will teach a player what to do with the
puck and where to go without the puck in the offensive zone. Scoring
opportunities come in a variety of methods. It is great to have a BIG
“Slapshot” but the reality it is not used a lot. As a scorer you need
to be able to be in the right place at the right time. In this class
you will learn same side triangles, 3rd person high, reading the play
back door chances, as well as specific scoring techniques such as: deking,
wrist shots, slap-shots and backhands and snapshots.

The
Top Pick Elite Games
The First Step to Progressing into our Specialized Programs
This is the program where future draft choices or recreational players
are developed. This is our most
popular camp for students to either learn about Draft Choice training
programs or to improve, review and develop their current skill levels. You will not have AA and AAA players mixed
in with house level players in this program. When conducting our on
ice programs the ice is divided and players are grouped accordingly. Skills and drills are taught so all levels
of players are taught properly by real teachers. If you want your child to score some goals,
be a better skater and puck handler, use some European On Ice Training
Equipment as part of their development, and play a lot of skilled "FUN"
Mini Games that our Physical Education teacher instructors have designed,
then this program is for the future Draft Choice and recreational player!

Body
Contact and Puck Protection
Body contact is present in boys and girls hockey. Many parents though see body contact as open ice hits. Body contact
is when two players come together in a conflict situation, mainly battling
for the puck. In our program
players are taught “How to Take
a hit, Give a hit and Avoid
a hit.” A “Power Position” is
established early and reinforced throughout this knowledgeable program
for boys & girls. Players’
are also taught the do’s and don’ts when entering the safety zones with
and without the puck. Your
child will learn: to be more aggressive during the play, how to control
the puck successfully during contact situations, how to eliminate a
player properly from the puck, and how to be safe when on the ice.
They will gain the Draft Choice Smile of Confidence in this great
educational and experiential session.
