Hockey Camp

The Nighthawks Ice Hockey Summer Development Camp will be offered for children ages 8-14, August 13-16, at Newtown Middle School and Shelton Rinks.

The camp will include off ice and on ice sessions to improve overall skills and hockey knowledge of each player to prepare them for the fall and, eventually, their high school careers.

The camp will consist of two days of off-ice speed, agility, and conditioning drills, and two days of on-ice drills/practices. During day one and two, players will also have classroom sessions to view video and will be given basic info on systems and nutrition. Video footage of campers will be available for viewing at home through the HUDL.com video online service.

Participants are asked to register by August 6. There needs to be a minimum of 15 skaters for the camp to be held. Cost is $250. Register through the Newtown Parks & Recreation link at www.newtown-ct.gov, and sign up with Activity number 409626 A.
