CONTACT PROGRESSION
HOW THIS GROUP OPERATES
Players train within either the Premier or High Performance environment, both operating under the same summer-long contact progression and expectations. Each session builds intentionally, introducing physical play in controlled phases so players develop comfort, positioning awareness, and timing before contact becomes part of their competitive season.
TRAINING FOCUS
Throughout the summer, contact is introduced progressively through angling, body positioning, puck protection, and competitive small-area play. Players learn how to initiate and absorb physical pressure properly while continuing to execute skills at game speed.
Coaching Standard
A 1:5 coach-to-player ratio ensures players receive detailed instruction and consistent correction as physical concepts are layered across the summer. Emphasis is placed on clarity, safety, and proper technique within every phase of contact progression.
