Ice Maximization
Sport International is the original developer of Ice Maximization Circuit Training. "Upbeat drills, continual movement and the focus on repetition" is our ingredients to developing young hockey players. International offers 3 Hours of concentrated ice training daily. Morning sessions cover every aspect of power skating; forward stride, backwards skating, stops and starts and tight turns. Afternoon sessions include our innovative puck-handling and shooting progressions through ice maximization stations. Our instructor/student ratio is approximately 1:6.
Computerized Motion Analysis
The Sport International Hockey Academy has emerged as the North American leader, with our original development, of computerized motion analysis and our 1997 invention of geometric stride analysis. Our video analysis will be conducted with each student on a daily basis. Skills to be concentrated upon, will be; forward stride, stops and starts, backwards skating, tight turns and shooting. Through the use of our telestrator machine and computer technology, our expert staff will individually isolate various areas of improvement or the reinforcement of properly executed skills. Each player will receive their video analysis tape to take home and review for future development. You may also purchase your analysis in a DVD format for an additional $15.00.
Russian Training
Sport International is the original developer of "Russian Training". Our unique off-ice conditioning program is conducted daily to reinforce the importance of training in the off-season and to aid in the injury prevention process. All Russian Training is incorporated with music for rhythm and fun. We will conduct a different form of training each day, working on legs, arms and puckhandling exercises. We feel this training is essential to build a hockey player, both mentally and physically.
Off-Ice Shooting
The Sport International Hockey Academy is under the common belief that to be a proficient shooter, a player must have the opportunity to exercise repetition with his or her shots. We offer each player a chance to shoot approximately 70 pucks per day at a wide variety of targets for increased accuracy. Our expert staff will instruct the fundamental skills associated to the following shots; Wrist, Backhand, Snap & Slap Shot. Off-ice shooting contests are offered daily by our staff, to continually challenge each player, as well as keeping the station fun and exciting.

Recreation
We feel that for a camp to be successful in the eyes of a child, the right mixture of fun and hard work must go hand in hand. Sport International offers 45 minutes each day, dedicated to a different recreational activity. It is clearly evident that a student is sharper and more focussed for the remainder of the day after having some fun at a low stress level activity. Good for our staff as well, they like to jump into the games and play with the students, which really creates stong bonding between student & staff.
