SHOOTERS' &
SCORERS' CAMP
Okanagan Hockey School’s full time hockey staff has over 70 years of NHL playing experience. This group understands as well as anyone the importance of shooting and scoring skills. It is often a fine line between having a good chance in a game and actually scoring. Accuracy, velocity and confidence come with repetition. Minor hockey programs do not allow enough time for shooting and scoring development. The shooters and scores program accomplishes this by having players work on their skills both on and off the ice in condensed one week sessions. This program is guaranteed to improve these skills and in doing so making you a more complete hockey player.
The most
important aspect of any hockey game is putting the puck in the
net. OHS Shooting and Scoring School will teach each participant
numerous shooting and scoring skills. This elite program is
designed for players,14-16, years who are playing at the highest
or elite level in their respective age groups. Many players
combine one week of Elite Skaters Program followed by one week of
Shooters and Scorers School.
