Programs

Hockey Skating and Battle Skills Camp

Students will be “Taught” how to compete for time, space, territory and loose pucks. Most programs simply run players through a series of drills just for the sake of doing drills. We commit our time teaching our students how to compete and battle safely using good defensive tactics and techniques. A large portion of the program will include our Hockey Skating and Checking Skills curriculum which will include drills dedicated to body contact confidence and awareness which is useful for players of all ages. Our “Heads up program” will be an integral part of our Battle Skills curriculum.

Hockey Skating and Transition Camp

With over 60% of all goals being scored off of transitional hockey, I thought, “Why don’t more schools teach transitional conversion and defense?” With that in mind, I decided to do it myself and offer the only camp of its kind.

In this camp, you will learn how to identify trouble before it happens and how to convert turnovers into goals. As with all Townshend Hockey programs, we also include our own Hockey Skating and Checking Program. I can assure you that your child has never been exposed to a program that is this comprehensive and dynamic before. As with all of our programs, all of the skills are broken down into teaching modules that accelerate the learning and confidence of all of our students.

Hockey Skating and Scoring Skills Camp

The two most important skills in the game! This program combines my unique Hockey Skating program with scoring tactics and 15 scoring techniques and tactics used by today's best NHLer's. These tactics were discovered through hours of research using the most up-to-date video analysis software only used by 5 NHL teams!

Learn the tight jam, the figure 8, and much more. I have also added my one and only "Power Play concept's training program". Ever wonder why some players make the PP and some don't? Well there are very specific skills NHL coaches want to see, for example "quick decisive puck movement, the ability to know when and how to attack seams. All this and more will be addressed. No other camp in North America offers a Power Play skills program.

The key concepts taught will include cut backs, acceleration, advanced edgework and over-speed training. Scoring skills covered include; tip-ins, shooting in stride, one timers, rebounds and more. Additionally, our innovative puck handling circuit is unmatched by any other school in the country. We will also introduce our camp attendees to our incredible Variable Goals Training (VGT) curriculum; we’ve been getting such great reviews from parents, coaches and players, that we just pumped it up with new drills and skills.

Hockey Skating and Defensemen Camp

While some camps make the claim, Townshend Hockey's is truly the ultimate defensemen’s camp! This camp was designed for defensemen by defensemen. As the man responsible for the skating development of all of our defensemen in San Jose I can assure you that this program is not taught anywhere as I was the one who designed it.

As a Division I College defenseman, I went from producing 6 points my sophomore year to 20 points my junior year. This camp will teach your child how I was able to make such a large gain in points scored over the course of one year. Topics include, battle skills, checking, defending the rush, neutral zone counters, defensive zone play (protecting the “House”), net front defense, joining the rush, shot selection and learning how to get shots to the net.

Hockey Skating and Acceleration Camp

This camp is all about speed, speed and more speed! This camp features my signature Hockey Skating program at high speeds. It is HIGHLY recommended that you attend one of my other Hockey Skating Programs in the past before attempting my Acceleration Program. Every skill is done at top speed with the use of the latest training methods used in the NHL. Ramp up your game by attending this program.

 

Goaltenders

 

Instructor - François Allaire

Francois AllaireWe are pleased to announce a new partnership with François Allaire International Goaltending Programs. Allaire is the goaltending coach for the Toronto Maple Leafs.

This partnership will provide for a 5 day goalie program at each of our SUNY Morrisville camps and each day will include 2 ice training sessions that will be made appropriate for students from Atom—Midget levels. There will also be off ice tactical sessions including review of NHL goaltenders techniques.

We are thrilled with the opportunity to grow our goalie training through François’ top instructors. He is known as “the goalie guru” and we know that our goalies will benefit from the knowledge and training his program provides. We will only take 9 goalies per week for each of our weeks at SUNY Morrisville, with a 3:1 student/instructor ratio, so be certain to register early at www.TownshendHockey.com to ensure your spot.
