The Zone Training is committed to developing the future of hockey. Our experienced staff members develop cutting-edge training programs which surpass industry standards and inherently instill the values of hard work, discipline, commitment and self-confidence in each player. Our programs cater to small groups and individuals who are looking for instruction in a unique and rewarding environment. Why choose The Zone Training? Group training programs on our 110' x 50' ice surface naturally reduces the player to instructor ratio. As a result, players benefit from more individualized instruction and constant attention from the instructors. Private lessons on full-sized ice surfaces can develop bad habits because players are able to move at a slower pace and use more space on the ice to execute their plays. Private lessons on smaller-scale ice surfaces challenge players to use their time and space wisely. The constraints of the ice surface help the players execute shots and passes quickly and efficiently. While competing in a 3-on-3 or 4-on-4 game, the players find that skills such as reaction time, stickhandling in confined spaces, and quick release while shooting are inherently developed in a fun and confidence building atmosphere. Each player has more time with the puck on his/her stick in a game on small ice than they would during a regular hockey game on a full-sized ice surface. More time with the puck allows players to develop their puck control skills and play-making abilities over the course of the season!
