As stated - this is a Hockey Canada checking certification camp and this certification is mandatory for a player to pursue Hockey Canada checking levels (U15 Major, U15 AA, or U15 A). The clinic provides orientation to players in the skills of body checking using a progressive approach from angling, positioning, and body contact to body checking. Players will receive their certification upon completion.

This checking camp is open to any player who is graduating from U13 and going into U15 in the coming season and who wants to play at a level where body checking is permitted. It is also open to any player who participated at the U15B or U15C (REC) levels this season who is returning to Bantam next season and wishes to play at a higher level of Bantam where checking is permitted.

Further, any player that has attended a checking clinic in the past may also attend as a refresher.

Hockey Nova Scotia mandates participation in this clinic by any player who wishes to participate in a body checking environment for the first time next season.

The clinic includes 1 hour of off ice that is required as well as 4 hours of on ice instruction. Cost is $150 and is payable by e-transfer to steve.bent@ns.sympatico.ca. Please use the password hockey.

When you return the registration document please be sure to specify which Group you are registering your player for, please also note that we cap numbers in each so as to provide quality instruction and learning by the player.
