The Hutchinson Hockey Association (HHA) strives to create an environment that encourages creativity, discipline, leadership, sportsmanship and competition, thus building character in all youth who choose to participate.  Our youth are our greatest asset.

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 HHA player 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.

Check out YouTube videos for proper form and tips:

• Wrist shot technique
• Slap shot off-ice shooting correction
• Basics of the snap shot
• Shooting off opposite foot
