Girls Summer Skill Development

Rep Players (Ages 11 & up)

For more than 5 years, the World Hockey Centre has offered one of the most comprehensive skill development programs in North America for female hockey players. It is through our world class, professional training that we help our players reach their hockey goals. This is exemplified through our Head Instructor, Vicky Sunohara, who has won 18 medals with Canada’s National Women’s teams. Along with Vicky, fellow Olympians and guest instructors, we will have some of the world’s most sought after hockey instruction at the World Hockey Centre.




The Training

Skill development and conditioning are the essential elements of our training program. Endurance, quickness and agility are all finely tuned on the ice, while weight training, conditioning and off-ice shooting are a part of our dryland training. Off-ice, players will make use of our obstacle course, ball hockey court, outdoor shooting lanes, weight room and spin bikes.

Fun @ WHC

If you are serious about your skill development, you already know off-season training is essential to your progression as a hockey player. That doesn't mean you can't work hard and have fun at the same time.

Players staying for multiple weeks have the option to go on field trips* to help break up the demanding training schedule during the week. Favourite WHC field trips include popular destinations like the Hockey Hall of Fame, Wasaga Beach, and Blue Jay Stadium.
