First Contact Hockey Camp is set up to ensure hands on instruction and coaching by NCAA Hockey Coaches.
Each camper will be in contact with at
least 7 different NCAA Coaches who have different philosophies towards
the game, and different coaching and teaching techniques.
FIRST CONTACT HOCKEY CAMP IS THE ONLY CAMP WHERE CANADIAN HOCKEY PLAYERS RECEIVE ON
ICE INSTRUCTION AND BEHIND THE BENCH COACHING FROM NCAA COACHES
1992 - 1993 Camp
- Great for those players that want to be the first to
showcase theur talents for the 2008/09 recruiting season. These players
will know exactly what the NCAA hockey coaches are looking for. Since
the camp is held on a college campus you are able to speak with every
NCAA coach in attendance.
1991 Camp
- With July 1, 2008 being the first date to contact a prospective
student-athlete who is entering his senior (grade 12) year of high
school, First Contact Hockey Camp facilitates the opportunity for
each camper to speak with an NCAA Coach of their choice.
Furthermore, it allows NCAA Coaches to call the prospective
student-athlete following the camp. This is a great opportunity
for the prospective student-athlete who is entering his junior
(grade 11) year of high school, as NCAA Coaches can track your progress
prior to your First Contact date of July 1, 2009. These juniors
will be able to receive letters and emails from the interested coaches
commencing September 1, 2008.
1988-1990 Camp
- Ideal for prospective student-athletes who will be competing at the
AAA or Junior hockey level. This will give the camper the
knowledge and exposure, as he strives to obtain his academic and
athletic goals.
N0 PIN-WHEEL EFFECT -
All practices and games will be held on 1 sheet of ice.
With only 1 sheet of ice being used for the camp, observers can focus
on the only practice or game. Other camps and hockey schools that
use more than 1 sheet of ice promote a 'pin-wheel' effect, where
observers have only a limited amount of time to watch an ice session
due to multiple sessions occuring at the same time.
