As residential programs, the Fundamental Skills Camps emphasize improving individual skills for forwards, defensemen and goaltenders of all levels. The skills taught during practice each day are incorporated into "team play" of the games each evening. Daily video sessions in our Lecture Theatre stress individual skill improvement as demonstrated by NHL players and are enhanced by the use of a telestrator.
