Quality Ice Instruction/Professional Ice Sessions KBX Hockey Body Contact/Body Checking Clinic ~ Education & Implementation
KBX Hockey Club has run Body Contact /Body Checking Clinics for several years. We receive fantastic feedback from parents and players both. This clinic helps players learn through education, learn through implementation, and learn to have respect for themselves and others on the ice. This clinic focuses on correct positioning, angling, protection of the player and the puck, safety against the boards, and how to be extremely respectful to others.
