Freeze Tier II Travel Hockey
Travel hockey provides a wonderful opportunity for kids to experience the excitement and accomplishment of sport through competition. Players gain first-hand experiences that will service them throughout their lives. They accomplish goals with other teammates. They experience personal learning and the satisfaction of personal development. Without realizing it, they learn problem-solving, strategic thinking and how to analyze and deal with complex situations. They make friendships that last a lifetime.
Our practices are two 80 minute slots weekly, unlike most clubs that only have two 50 minute slots. This provides your player with the equivalent of three practices weekly.
