Ice Barn is pleased to announce the launch of a partnership with Hamilton Ridge Academy to support young player\u2019s athletic and academic dreams. Ice Barn\u2019s \u2018<\/span>Hockey Academy<\/strong>\u2019 will be available for the 2023-24 academic year<\/span>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
An elite hockey training experience that accelerates skill development<\/span><\/h6>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Players will be tested and video recorded twice a year with <\/span>our battery of<\/span> testing to track progress and enable us to identify strengths and weaknesses of each individual. <\/span>Through in-depth analysis and the\u00a0flexibility of small group training, we will be able to tailor our programming to the needs of each player.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Our academy setting will allow focused, deliberate, high repetitions of the building blocks of skating, shooting and puck handling with real time, individual feedback on the ice by use of on-ice video.<\/span><\/p>\n
The season is broken into four blocks to not only thoroughly teach and master each skill, but give players the tools to\u00a0apply\u00a0those skills in game situations against live opponents.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Our program will include three on-ice, and two off-ice sessions per week<\/span>. Players will be given Heart-rate Monitors to wear during each session to allow us to track workload, output, and other\u00a0health indicators to avoid injury, illness and make sure we train at the appropriate intensity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Off-ice sessions will focus primarily on range of motion, injury prevention techniques and skating specific strength work. Players will start the season with a Functional Movement Screening (FMS) to identify\u00a0weaknesses and deficiencies that affect performance and lead to compensatory injuries as the players get older.\u00a0Players will also be given a Functional Movement Screen test (FMS) to determine any deficiencies in their muscular development, so that we can build a specialized development program to\u00a0address each student\u2019s personal needs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
Players will conclude each day with a shake\/drink to ensure that they\u2019re getting the proper nutrients and macro calorie ratios for muscle growth and recovery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
212 Hockey Academy players can choose to train in the morning or afternoon to help accommodate academic schedules. The weekly schedule sample:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

To accommodate every learner’s academic schedule, we will offer an AM or PM group. The same programming will be done during both sessions every day.\u00a0Players must choose a morning (AM) or afternoon (PM) session for the season to keep on-ice numbers at an appropriate coach\/player\u00a0ratio. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
The 212 Academy will have two age groups: 10-12U and 13-16U.<\/p>\n
