northside Summer D-Man Camp #1: AUGUST 4-8, 2025

August 4 - 8, 2025 

Castle Downs - Arena B

11520 153 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T5X 5S5 

Learning to play Defence takes time and specific coaching geared towards making the game easier to play. From experience, I know there isn't always time in practice for a team's coach to dedicate a ton of time to D specific practice work.

We break down the position by teaching and working on the basic areas of the position. 1 vs 1, breakouts, net front battles and shooting from the point are very important skills for Dmen. These happen repeatedly for Dmen over the course of the game. Within those 4 areas of playing D there are many skills within them that are required to be able to do them like stick and body positioning, pivots, timing, etc.

We look forward to getting to spend time with the players, to break the game down, teach them and then work them through tons of reps to reinforce the new skills so that they can take a step towards being a stronger D man for their teams!

See you in August!
