Through our collective experience at the junior, university, and professional level, as well as decades of coaching and instructing experience in the United States, Canada, and Europe, we have designed a ‘Total Skills Development Training Model’. Below, we have provided a ‘sample outline’ of a typical on-ice session at The “OV” Hockey School. For more information on your age group and camp, please scroll down for specific details as well as a sample syllabus and practice plan.

Total Skills Development Sequence
(Technical Skills & Individual Tactics)
|
Skating, puckhandling,
passing, and shooting are the fundamental skills required to play the game
of hockey. Our Total Skills Development Sequence will isolate these
fundamental skills by breaking them down into component pieces. Starting
with the most essential technical hockey skill (skating), our staff
members will work with our students creating a solid technical foundation
for any hockey player, mite through pro.

Water Break

Part II (Multi-Tasking Drill Sequences:
Technical Skills, Individual Tactics, Team Tactics and Concepts, Small
Area Games and Team Competitions)
|
|
12 min.
|
High Tempo Flow
|
Creative drill progressions
specifically designed to develop technical skills, individual tactics, and
team tactics and concepts. Infused with High Speed, High Intensity, and
High Energy, these drills are all game like, challenging, and fun.
|
|
25 min.
|
Multi-Tasking Drill Sequences
|
During this sequence,
participants are divided into groups and train at specific stations on the
ice. Each station will include a multi-tasking drill and progression (ex.
puck protection and individual battles, puck support, timing, etc.). All
multi-tasking drills will have a core focus on skating, puckhandling,
passing, and shooting.
|
|
1 min.
|
Water Break
|
Hydrate Body
|
|
20 min.
|
Small Area Games & Team Competitions
|
Team play and concepts using
high tempo drills for a short duration with a high number of repetitions.
Players are forced to use time and space, read and react, work on
fundamental skills, and make appropriate decisions with and without the
puck. Challenging, competitive, and fun -- confined skills development
training replicates a 'real' game scenario. Additionally, this is a great
way for our participants to have fun and create team unity and friendship
through competition.

- Each "OV" camp is designed using a progression format. We feel this format is critical in the development of all hockey players. The first half of every ice session is devoted to fundamental skill development (technical skills and individual tactics). By isolating specific movements, we break down these fundamentals creating a solid foundation for any hockey player, mite through pro. During the second half of every ice session the more tactical aspects of the game are covered. Initially, the focus is on more complex individual tactics, but as the week progresses, more in – depth team tactics and concepts are discussed.
- The progression, complexity, and speed of our practice plans are dependent on the age and skill level of our participants.
- The above sample outline of a typical on-ice day assumes a two hour session in our summer camps.
- We strive to design our curriculum and practice plans around keeping our goaltenders active and engaged in all training sessions.
