Winter Break Hockey Clinics
Upper Canada College Arena · Ages 6-12
Clinics Overview
Our Winter Break Hockey Clinics at Upper Canada College Arena are designed to provide players with high-quality skill development and game-based learning during the winter school break. During the 2-hour intensive ice session players will rotate through a handful of different stations designed to challenge players to learn new skills and improve their confidence on the ice. As these are intensive hockey clinics, there is no off-ice portion.
Every Winter Break Hockey Clinic includes two hours of on-ice development with clear progressions in skating, stickhandling, shooting, and passing, depending on the day. Small-area games help players apply new skills under real pressure, encouraging quick decisions and smart puck movement. Groups are organized by age and ability so players are challenged appropriately and supported in a positive, team-first environment. Players must be at least 6 years old and have prior hockey experience. Goalies can attend this camp at a reduced rate — please email camps@topsports.ca for more details.
