Application at the bottom of this page
Limited space available for camps!!!!! Sign up today!
Your Child, regardless of skill level, will leave our week of camp stronger in their skating,
stickhandling, passing, shooting and overall knowledge of the game. As we enter our 19th Summer, our goal remains
the same, to bring one of the best hockey experiences to your child. To challenge them to lift their individual skills
and have them apply them to game situations, at game speeds.
Players Edge limits the number of camps we conduct
each summer to be sure you get our very best Instructors. Instructors that have not only played or coached at
a high level, more importantly, can teach the skills needed in the game to every level of player in our camps.
Our groups are broken into 3 or 4 smaller ones, placing players within groups of like age or abilities. Our
priority is to keep the players moving, not standing in lines. The more repetition, the better chance for correction
by our staff and confidence/improvement in our players.
Every player and goaltender is given a Report Card
prepared by their Major Instructor. It includes on and off ice test scores, radar of their shooting, video analysis
from the week, a coaches report and player self-evaluation. Along with Players Edge gift.
Each player has
a personalized jersey with their name and favorite number that is used in every session and is their's to keep!

towards hand/eye coordination, foot speed or movement drills. We use stations such as Powerchutes, bungee pulls, slide
boards, medicine balls, weighted pucks, Russian Jump Boxes and more. We also use team games such as team handball to
promote passing and constant movement.

the final day of camp. It contains on and off ice testing results the players are put through during the week, video
