THC has become the place to go for skill improvement in Winnipeg. There is no other place in the province like it. Where else can you handle a puck or ball for an hour at a time, or shoot 200 shots, with instructors ensuring quality repetitions throughout your sessions.
We offer a wide array of programs, clubs and camps, suited to your individual training needs:
Building on previous years, we are pleased to release the 2013 hockey development schedule at the MTS Iceplex. Beginning in 2013 and moving forward, Northwestern Hockey Sports Camp, Total Hockey Centre and Focus Fitness are partnering together to offer a comprehensive hockey development platform. The strengths of these dynamic components provides an inclusive program for all players, male and female, beginner, developing and elite, youth through to Junior. We understand that many families will have questions and will require some assistance to select the suitable camp for their player; we are pleased to clarify camp options and to review development opportunities for your player.
The 2013 Northwestern Hockey Sports Camp brochures are now available in the arenas (previous participants will receive a brochure in the mail) and updates are on the website at www.nhsc.mb.ca .
All programs with Northwestern Hockey Sports Camp include an integrated goaltender development program in partnership with the Ice Lab. Brent Zelenewich and the Ice Lab staff will implement the goaltender development program on ice; goaltender spaces are limited in each camp to provide each goaltender optimal development opportunity.
Total Hockey Centre will offer hockey specific skill development and training to complement on ice development. Players will benefit from the state of the art training stations that will ultimately increase learning, retention and implementation on ice.
As players mature, off ice conditioning becomes an essential component for the aspiring athlete to reach the next level. Focus Fitness builds training programs to aid players to reach their full development potential. Many of the High Performance camps have a Focus Fitness component to provide maximum benefit for the player.
The Northwestern Hockey Sports Camp Progression of Development, in accordance with the Hockey Canada philosophy of player development, takes a player from entry level onward with the focus on learning, in a positive and fun environment:
Initiation Phase
Competitive Phase
High Performance Phase
AAA Phase
Junior Phase
Prep / Sport Schools
