TEAMS

A big shout out of thanks to Neil and the awesome instructors at CHA who have provided the spark and fundamental training to advance Owen’s level of play! Owen has not only improved his skills but the fundamentals to advance his level of play. Thank you for the terrific skills training!!

CHA PA Day clinics are incredible - fast-paced and amazing coaching! I was also really impressed with the camp we did after Christmas. My kiddo was so bummed when it was time for me to pick him up because he wanted to stay! We couldn’t be happier.

My son Liam and I made the trip to China to participate in the Little Wolf tournament on a team put together by CHA. The Boys played against kids one to two years older than them and CHA’s coaching and positive attitude got them all the way to the finals of their division. It was truly an amazing trip for Liam, and I watched him develop as a player and as a teammate.

The benefits of the Academy go beyond just hockey. Lucas’ teachers have asked us why on Thursday’s he's more focused, alert and excited to be at school. When we tell them it’s because he’s already been on the ice, they can’t believe it. We can. You would think waking up at 5:30 in the morning, in the pitch black, -18 degrees outside would deter our kid, but there’s nothing Lucas would rather do than get out of bed and head to the rink. I wished there was a CHA Academy when I was growing up.

My son has participated in the Spring Hockey Program at Central Hockey Academy (CHA) for several years. The Academy is a competitive and structured program which we’ve found to greatly enhance our son’s skills and techniques. All the coaches at CHA have been professional, engaging and attentive to the players needs. The coaches strive to challenge the players and provide them with opportunities to better themselves. In 2018, the CHA coach of my son’s Spring Team has registered the team for a tournament in Los Angeles. This will be an outstanding opportunity for my son to have International exposure to hockey. The Spring Hockey Program at CHA is the best in the City. My son looks forward to the program every year.

We are so glad we found a hockey program that understands kids and how they learn. The staff are absolutely amazing. They take pride in what they teach and actually ‘correct’ kids when needed. The small group sizes and high intensity training program is exactly what my son needed. CHA also provide a great spring program and this year the kids will be headed to Los Angeles for the Carmen Starr Tinseltown Tournament Series. Our expectations with CHA were totally exceeded. Thanks CHA!!

My daughter's play rep level hockey and both attend the CHA Academy program. The program is a completely unique opportunity to help both of them work on elevating their skating, puck skills and for my older daughter, her hitting and puck protection skills. I recommend CHA and their outstanding staff to anyone interested in helping their child push past their limits and achieve their true potential!

Our daughter has been attending CHA drop in sessions and PA Day clinics for years, and has fun every time. The sessions are high paced and action packed, and have really helped with our daughters edgework, shot and overall confidence. The instructors are the real deal, and are great with the kids. If your child loves the sport and wants to get better, these are the guys and gals you want helping your child to reach their goals.

Our sons have been attending March Break and Summer training camps for years now. The camps always involve lots of time on-ice, and they incorporate great off-ice activities as well, including: boxing (a favourite for our boys), weight training, conditioning, shooting and just plain fun soccer, ball hockey and baseball games. We highly recommend CHA to any boy or girl looking for a fun experience to improve their skills.

Our boys (aged 11 and 6) have been attending drop-in and PD Day clinic sessions at CHA for several years. They run a fast-paced, skills-based program for all levels of players. We have seen the benefits of their teaching in our boys’ performance on the ice, and in their overall self confidence. All of the CHA instructors are very skilled and importantly, very good with the kids. We cannot say enough good things about CHA.

My 3 kids have participated in the Monday Academy Program and have loved it! The program is tailored to rep players who genuinely love hockey and want to improve their game in an environment where the instructor to player ratio is very low.The instructors are amazing and know how to communicate and work with well with children – an often overlooked skill. The Academy Program was instrumental in improving my kid’s edge work and improving their confidence in stickhandling and shooting. I absolutely recommend this program to any parent that has rep-level kids that are keen and want to improve their game!

Our son loves your drop-in program and it’s really made a difference in his overall skill level. As a parent I love not only the level of instruction my son is receiving, but also the fun he has and the way that all the coaches work to connect with the kids. CHA has been a really fun, worthwhile addition to our hockey life!

Our boys look forward to CHA summer camp all year long. They love the combination of on-ice and off-ice activities, including boxing. It’s on their must-do list every summer. We also love the meal option - no need to pack lunches for the week! Win win!

Thanks to you and your staff once again for an action packed week for the boys and girls who could make it... all Max talked about was the camp to his mom, and to anyone else who listened. He’s had two strong hockey games since!
