NCYH + B2B Athletics
2026 Off-Season Training & Tryout Prep
ICE TIME SESSIONS at NoCo Ice Center
These are the reps that build real confidence.
Train with purpose — and show up ready to make a statement.
Ages: Open to birth years 2017 & OLDER
Cost: $80 per Session
Your player gets one shot to show up ready.
The coach’s first impression. The confidence in their stride. The puck touches that set them apart. These sessions are more than just drills — they’re designed to prepare your player for the pace, pressure, and in-game problem solving. Because when the puck drops, you don’t get time to think — you react, decide, and play.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
- 2 hours of high-rep, high-speed skill development
- Advanced edge work with full range-of-motion skating
- Explosive starts and quick-twitch acceleration
- Skating alignment and power-angle efficiency for top-end speed
- Game-speed puck handling and deceptive shooting
- Puck protection under pressure
- Resistance-based skating to build stronger, more effective in-game performance
WHO SHOULD REGISTER
This program is for players who want to elevate their game and:
- Walk into tryouts feeling ready — not rusty
- Separate from the pack early
- Build confidence and decision-making under pressure
- Lead the play instead of chasing it
- Train with purpose, pace, and accountability
- Must be able to perform backward crossovers
→ No refunds will be issued if this skill is not met
🔥 BONUS SKILLS -- Where the real separation happens:
- Eye–hand coordination for cleaner puck handling, tips, and finishes
- Multitasking skills: skating under pressure while maintaining puck control
- Reaction-time development to win races and recover faster
- Peripheral awareness to read the full ice — not just the puck
- Decision-making reps that build real-time game IQ
- Position-neutral drills to create smarter, more adaptable players
- Play-creation skills that help athletes anticipate and initiate offense — not just follow it
Registration Info:
- $80 per session – register for one or all four
- 40 skater max per session – no waitlist once full
- No sibling discounts, makeups, or swaps
