COMPREHENSIVE SKILLS CLINICS
Comprehensive Skills Clinics are weekly sessions for female, female identifying, and non-binary players that focus on overall skill development. Players receive small group instruction in all of the core 4 skill areas; skating, stick handling, passing and shooting and play small area games to help players apply their skills in a competitive setting. Practices are stationed based, with players organized into small groups by age and skill level.
Players are generally required to have at least one season of skating experience (which can include Learn to Skate & Play) to participate - if you would like more information on beginner programs, please contact us. Full equipment is also required unless otherwise discussed with Girls 4 Hockey.
Goalies welcome - a goalie coach will be hired for the sessions goalies are registered for unless otherwise indicated below.
Pricing varies by session, but Comprehensive Skills Clinics do allow for flexibility of schedule. Players can register as one-time, part-time or full-time participants.
Upcoming Sessions:
2025 Pre-Season Comprehensive Skills
​​
Our 2025 Pre-Season Comprehensive Skills Clinics are sessions that focus on the core 4 skill areas; skating, stick handling, passing and shooting. We also play small area games to help players apply their skills in a competitive setting. After a group warm-up, sessions are station-based with players divided into groups by age and skill level. Within groups, players will work on age-appropriate skills with drills designed to focus on skill areas that are commonly assessed in tryouts. For 10U groups, we will also use small area drills and games to address full-ice game-play topics such as off-sides and faceoffs to help prepare players for full-ice play.
​
Goalies who register will receive 20-25 minutes of goalie-specific training with a goalie coach with a focus on skating, movement, and angles. After 20-25 minutes, goalies will jump into stations based on age groups to take shots during drills and games for the remainder of the session.
​
2025 Pre-Comprehensive Skills will serve birth years 2011 - 2020.
