Elite Summer Training Program
Half Day Camps with Jake Gushue and Gushue Athletic Development
We are proud to be teaming up with Gushue Athletic Development for an Elite Summer Training Program. The Half Day Camps will consist of three hours of training per day. Each day will consist of an hour of on-ice training, an hour of synthetic ice shooting and stickhandling, and an hour of dryland strength and conditioning.
