Description
These days defensemen must be mobile, quick thinkers able to move with the puck to create scoring opportunities and threatening line rushes. With this in mind we have created a program that will not only teach how to defend your own end, but will allow the student to gain confidence in skating with the puck and joining the rush. Every team needs a defenseman that can be a great offensive contributor. This program will provide all the skills needed to become a defenseman that can breakup the play then turn it up the other way.
All of the essential defensive skills will also be covered. (eg. Backwards skating including acceleration & pivots, 1 on 1’s, 2 on 1’s, holding the blue line, breakout passes, transitional play and covering the front of the net.) This program is a must for all defensemen!
Off-Ice Training Description
Off-ice fitness training will take place in our 2000 sq ft training centre in rink #2 at RINX as well as outside at a nearby park. The training program will include balance & agility, upper and lower body strength, speed, quickness & mobility, conditioning and flexibility. Students will work at their own level under the guidance of our fitness training staff learning basic and advanced training routines & exercises.
After the off-ice training session is completed students will play a fun sports activity such as soccer, baseball or tag.

TESTIMONIALS
World Class Hockey camps were a part of my regular routine every summer growing up. I learned so much from the Defense camps. As an offensive defenseman Jules’ camps helped give me the confidence to rush the puck and gave me a better understanding of the defense position as a whole. I am a better player today because of the work I did at Jules’ camps and they are a big reason I am the player I am today. Appreciate all of your help Jules.
Just a quick note to compliment you and your staff on running an excellent camp. The three defensemen from our team who attended really enjoyed it and got a lot out of it. My son Michael was one of these players and he loved every minute. He now feels more confident playing a “new position”. These “specialized camps” that you offer are very worthwhile – instructional and challenging. Great job!”
To reach your full potential as a player it helps to be technically sound in the four core aspects of hockey. Learn the correct way to skate, shoot, puck handle and pass at a young age and these skills will stay with you forever and make the rest of the game much easier. World Class Hockey does a great job at teaching and demonstrating these skills while focusing on being technically correct. I would recommend Jules Jardine and his program to anyone looking to improve their overall skill level.
