The Preseason Position Clinic is a three-day position specific clinic for forwards, defensemen and goaltenders ages 11 to 14. Our focus is to teach and develop some of the details and habits associated with each position in the game. Hockey players today grow up learning the fundamental skills of hockey at a very young age. The next step in their development is to learn and practice specific skills related to their position while knowing how and when to use those skills in a game. 2023 Preseason Position Clinic Brochure
