For 2024 –

This group is open to skaters born in 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2016.

Timing: The day will begin between 7:30-8:15am and end between 4:00-4:30pm.  A confirmed start and end time will be sent out two weeks prior to the camp.  We are unable to offer pre-care or post-care.

Parents are not required to stay for the duration of the day.  They may come and spectate, however it is not a time to interact with your child.  We ask that they stay with their group at all times.

Instructors will be present in the dressing rooms to assist the participants with their equipment for each ice time.

Lunch: Participants will pack along their own nut-free lunches and snacks.  They will also provide their own full equipment, stick, towel (to sit on outside) and water bottles.

Phones: Participants are NOT permitted to use their phones during camp hours.  Phones must be left in the dressing room, inside a pocket or bag, at all times.  If they must have them along at camp, neither the facility, nor NRS is responsible for any theft or damage.

On Ice: This group will participate in 11 ice times over the course of the week: one day will have two ice times, and three days will have three ice times.  We will cover power skating and skill development, basics and refinement of each position, defensive and offensive strategies (1v1, 2v1, 2v2), and have time to scrimmage.  The final ice time of the week is a game.  Parents are welcome to cheer on their child.

A few of the skills that will be covered this week are:

• • Skating technique with a focus on edgework, strength and speed,
  • Accurately passing and successfully receiving a pass,
  • Ring handling and deking,
  • Shooting proper technique, accuracy and power,
  • Selecting the best spot for shooting and shot to take,
  • Defensive triangle positioning and channelling,
  • Finding open ice to receive a pass,
  • Offensive zone strategy, and
  • Goalie ring options.

Off Ice:  When the athletes are off the ice they will participate in a variety of age-appropriate activities to help develop their athletic abilities, ringette skills and knowledge.  The activities will range from cross-training activities (i.e. yoga, soccer, juggling, etc.) to introductory fitness sessions; discussions about mental training and exercises; ringette strategies and rules; and team building games.
