Group Structure

Small Group Development is designed around position-specific teaching, controlled workloads, and meaningful repetitions that translate directly to game play.

To ensure a high coach-to-player ratio and position-specific development, groups are structured as follows:

  • Separated by position:

    • Forwards

    • Defencemen

    • Goaltenders

    Group sizes are capped to maintain quality instruction:

    • Forwards / Defencemen: 8–10 skaters per group

    • Goaltenders: 3–5 goalies per group

  • Will train as one combined group structured to align with age-appropriate development.
