Registration is open for Ticks U10/U8 Boys Winter Session.
Dates: Sept 1, 2023 through March 29th, 2024
Time: Fridays from 6 to 7pm
Cost: $200 for entire session - must be received by June 15th
Eligible: Players from MiniTicks/U8/U10 - Birth years 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014 (we will also consider interested 2013 players pending registration numbers)
Total Spots: 28
Players will work with coaches from the Ticks program on skills and positioning, with a heavy focus on in-game situations and simulations. Pads and helmets will be required, offering a great chance for players of all skill levels to be prepared for their next level of competition.
Examples by level:
Mini-Ticks to U8 (2017/2016's) - focus on familiarity with game situations, throwing and catching, wearing pads for first time, technique, and positional responsibilities
U8 Returning Players - enhanced positional responsibilities, use of body position, dodge techniques, transition defense/offense, man-ball scenarios
U8 to U10 - dodge techniques, stick checking, man and zone defense, setting picks, motion offense and defense simulations
U10 Returning Players - transition defense/offense, faceoffs, man-ball release, defensive switches
While players will spend the majority of time with their age group, each player will be focused on a specific set of improvements based on their comfort and skill. Scrimmages will be done by skill level.
This will be a fun and exciting way for your player to gain familiarity and confidence for the Spring 2024 season. It is not a requirement for playing in Spring to do the Winter Session.
Registration will be closed after June 15th or once 28 attendees is reached. Whichever is first.
