Erik Nates Euro Hockey
3 ON 3 LEAGUE
Enhance your skill level, cultivate creativity and most of all, enjoy the game
Overview
Erik Nates Euro Hockey has developed a spring league that will give each player the opportunity to enhance their skill level, cultivate creativity and most of all, enjoy the game. The league is designed to break down the game to its most basic form: Individual Skill Development & Small Area Games.
Practices
Each practice will focus on Skill Development and game awareness through the use of small area games.
The skill development part of practice will work on areas such as: skating, edge control, agility, puck handling, puck protection & acceleration. Each player will be taught skills each practice and through repetition, be challenged to the best of their ability.
Spring League
The league will consist of 1 practice per week focusing 30 minutes towards skill development and 30 minutes on small area games. League games will be played once per week in a cross-ice 3 on 3 round-robin format. Every team roster will be limited to 10-12 players.
3 on 3 spring league
Overview
The small area games will be a useful tool to help players develop game awareness and puck handling skills by shrinking the ice allowing players to get puck-touches, stay involved in the play more often & learn to make quick, effective decisions with and without the puck. In these small area games, we will stress the importance of puck protection, puck possession, give & go’s and most importantly movement of each players feet with and without the puck.
