Overview

Mission

The blizzard hockey club is an aaa hockey organization that is based upon the development of individual abilities that support team concepts. Blizzard players will receive instruction based on the development of the core hockey skills and how to play the game in all three zones of the rink. Specifically, the offensive, defensive and neutral zone systems will be taught with the purpose of developing all blizzard aaa hockey club players to become "smart" hockey players not individualistic "pond hockey" players. Players must have a positive attitude and willing to give 100% effort. Coaching staff will foster a positive and fun learning environment. The blizzard aaa hockey club encourages participation in other sports activities - the teams will take a break in the summer to allow participation in family activities and non-hockey activities. Between, april, may, june, july and august the players will be on the ice for 40+ hours which includes practices, scrimmages and tournamen

What it reported doing in 2014

The 2014 Minnesota blizzard hockey club had participants from the ages of 7 years old to 17 years old. Over the course of 2 plus months in the spring and 1 plus months in the fall the blizzard hockey participants spent many hours on the ice developing their hockey skills along with the competitiveness of playing some scrimmage games and entering tournaments throughout the aaa season. Since the teams consist of players from various communities, many friendship bonds are created and will be maintained for many years to come. Although the main focus of the program is developing hockey players, many social skills and life lessons are learned along the way through on and off ice sessions from each other and the many volunteers in the program.
