Player Development

Athletes will receive 135+ hours of on-ice training over the course of the season. This includes games, 3 tournaments, team practices, and skills sessions. An end of season tournament in District 3 closes out the season. Teams participating at B1 or A will have an opportunity to play in Regions and possibly State.

The SLPHA Bantam Program builds off our Peewee Program. An increased emphasis of compete level and pace of play will be placed on players. Practices will be age appropriate with a concentration on skill development in the following buckets:

  1. 50% Skills: hockey skills & habits
  2. 35% Sense: concepts & awareness
  3. 15% Systems: team play and the addition of more team concepts and tactics.
