Developmental Hockey

 
 

The Ice Connection’s Developmental Program is designed to get kids interested in playing the sport of Hockey.  Our head instructor is Coach Brad Posey.  He has been playing hockey for 16 years and has been coaching for 9 years.  "We try our best to make it fun for the kids while they learn the basic skills they would need to play at the next level.  The major skill we focus on is Skating.  We get the kids comfortable on their skates and also comfortable getting up from the ice, so when they fall, they can quickly bounce right back up.  Other skills focused on are stick handling, passing, and shooting.  We do not just focus on the skills of the game, but some mental aspects, like offsides.  We do focus a lot on work ethic.  We push all kids to do their best and try their hardest at all times, but in the end we teach that the game of hockey is still just a game and is made to be fun."
