3v3 Small Area Games
Small area games are competitive games played on a reduced ice surface. They have proven to be immensely important for improving puck protection, passing, and quick decision-making while increasing puck touches. Each small area game will have a specific focus or set of rules to mimic real game situations. Along with being an amazing teaching tool, small area games are a truly fun way to learn the game. Players will be required to bring a light and dark jersey to each session as teams will be refreshed each week.
