SUMMER HOCKEY CAMPS
Teen Ranch has been conducting one of the best hockey programs for kids and adults since 1971. Since 1994 we have had the benefit of training in our own olympic size arena on our beautiful 150 acre property. Power skating is a premium skill we stress using both on and off-ice drills contributing to the camper’s development. Excellent nutrition will ensure our campers will have maximum opportunity for development. You may call our year-round resident instructors, Jim Ensom and Tim Stevens to help you determine which is the program suited to your needs. During summer camps, they are joined by Corey Neilson, a 10 year pro, playing coach and certified personal trainer. Our past guest instructors include Mike Gartner, Laurie Boschman, Paul Henderson, Ron Ellis, Mike Murphy, John Paddock, Doug Jarvis and Cheryl Pounder (Canadian National Women’s Team). Goalie coaches have included Dan Ellis (Nashville Predators) and Mike Binnie (Liberty University). Olympians and World Champion figure skaters Barb Underhill and Paul Martini have assisted our skaters as well. At this time we cannot quarantee that all of these guest instructors will attend this year. Off-ice recreational actvities that campers in all programs can enjoy in their free time are: • Horseback riding • Giant Swing • Basketball • Swimming • Climbing wall • Jousting • Campfires and many more.
HI -PERFORMANCE CAMPS
If you work hard, you’ll have the opportunity to improve your skills so hockey will be much more fun. This program can help you to move up to the next level. This is a program for players who want skill development, individual attention and lots of skating. It’s a high quality program with great drills and fun scrimmages. The off-ice program will concentrate on recreational activities like soccer, basketball, etc. 15+ hours of ice time for the week.
GIRL’S CAMP
“Teen Ranch Hockey” was one of the early programs for girls long before girls’ hockey “took off”. Because of our great program and beautiful facilities, nutritious menu and dedicated staff, Canada’s Olympic Gold medal team, Ontario Women’s Hockey Association teams and many national women’s teams from around the world (Russia, Finland, Germany and Switzerland) have opted to make Teen Ranch a favourite training centre . We have incorporated those same areas of excellence into our girls’ programs. You will be amazed at the progress in skating, puck handling, shooting skills and positional play in even a week…and to top it off you will have the opportunity to ride horses and take part in all the other camp activities. 15+ hours of ice time per week. NOTE: Girls are welcome to register in all hockey programs.
ELITE CAMP
FOR REP LEVEL PLAYERS ONLY
We turn it up several notches and push you to help discover how good you can be. It’s higher tempo in all drills and scrimmages with people who are on your level of ability. Challenging off-ice conditioning is developed by our professional personal fitness trainers. We will concentrate on all aspects of your individual skills and your skating will be analysed with the use of video. We’ll cover defensive and offensive tactics and body-checking techniques. We’ll help you be serious about your development and you’ll enjoy the balanced fun activities at Teen Ranch. 16+ hours of ice time per week and five hours off-ice conditioning.
