Welcome to the Edge Conditioning Camps which for the summer of 2010 will be running out of Trico Centre. This is an on ice and off ice training program that runs the months of June, July and August, 5 days per week (Monday through Friday), 2 hours per day. This program is open to pro, college, junior, midget and bantam players. Participants can sign up for 1, 2 or 3 months and we will be flexible and pro rate fees to accommodate required away time (holidays, prior commitments).

Testing

At the beginning of your training we will test you in many areas related to hockey. Quickness, agility, balance, power, strength, flexibility, anaerobic endurance are just a few of the areas we will measure. Each participant will have an Edge binder to keep track of test scores. At the end of your training you will be retested to see you improvement. This testing gives us some guidelines for where you need improvement as well.

Training

In hockey you use many pieces of equipment such as your stick and skates. Most players forget the most important piece of equipment. THEIR BODY. We will give you this piece of equipment to use as a tool and it will be the one that makes a good player great. This program will focus on training the whole body for the complete athletic package.
