Pre-season camp is now underway! Check out the schedule and more info here: Hutch Hockey Camps
2024 Summer Shooting Challenge
This is an optional 'challenge' to encourage skill development during the off-season!
Timing: May 1- August 31
Categories (# of shots):
2,000-3,999 | 4,000-5,999 | 6,000-7,999 | 8,000-9,999 | 10,000+
Any player from any level can participate in any category! Please encourage your player(s) to make a goal before starting the challenge. There are about 120 days in the challenge to factor a daily average, i.e. 6,000/120 = 50 shots per day. Any shot counts - wrist shot, slap shot, snap shot, backhand, etc - so mix it up and keep track. A parent must initial the # of shots each day to check in on a regular basis.
