Hockey On-Ice Training

AE and Stop It Goaltending (www.stopitgoaltending.com) recently upgraded our 60’x30’ real ice rink, which provides our athletes with a unique opportunity to work out and skate at the same place at a discounted cost. It is nearly impossible to find ice time in this area and even when you can get on the ice the cost is usually high because you have to rent an entire sheet. AE’s smaller rink allows us to lower the rates to make it more affordable for individuals and small groups to rent ice time and hone their skills. We also offer hybrid programs where off-ice training and on-ice skill development are included in the same package. See below for details.

5,000 Puck Touch Challenge

Athletic Evolution, Valerie Bono and Seven Hockey are proud to announce a new groundbreaking on-ice/off-ice hockey training program this summer where each player is guaranteed to get 5,000 puck touches over the course of 4 weeks. Designed after the European model, which consists of less time playing games and more time developing skills and improving speed, agility and strength, this new program will give each player the total hockey experience that they need to improve this offseason and get a step ahead of the competition!

On-Ice Training

Each workout consists of one hour of intense skill development designed after the European model
Skills covered will include: puck touches & shooting, positional power & scoring, quick feet & stick handling, agility & technique
Fast-paced workouts force quick decisions with the puck and ensure an intense workout
Smaller ice surface brings players out of their comfort zone and leads to raised skill level and quickness in all movements and shots
Repetition, repetition, repetition – specific skills will become second nature

The on-ice component of the program will be run by Seven Hockey, which is led by Head Hockey Coach Valerie Bono.
