Lambeau Field, Green Bay, and Some Hockey!

Posted: Tuesday, July 5th Filed in: 2011 Camps General

Legend Hockey hits ice again, this time in Cheesehead Nation! The girls in Green Bay, Wisconsin were full of energy and eager to improve.

Being our first year in Green Bay, we were able to create a more one-on-one environment. We spent time working in tight spaces during small area games, as well as working on a lot of fundamentals with the girls such as inside and outside edges and practicing tight turns and pivots. The improvements made were just remarkable. One parent could barely recognize her daughter due to her tremendous improvement as a skater. The girls enjoyed the camp, not only because it was fun, but also because they had to work harder than they ever had before. The players felt great with the effort they put forth throughout the three days and their resulting improved performance.

In classroom, the girls learned to set goals. One player aspires to be an Olympian soccer player. Dryland one day was soccer outside, and these girls had some skill! Soccer was definitely a favorite activity for the girls in Green Bay.  It was fun watching them enjoy activities other than just hockey, as it is so crucial for young athletes to participate in a variety of sports. Doing so increases athleticism and helps the athlete to become a well-rounded player.

Legend Hockey thoroughly enjoyed bringing personal, leadership, and physical development to Green Bay and is looking forward to returning again next year!
