Winter Camp( 12 Saturdays)
East Coast Field Hockey's Winter Camps are designed for local players
who would like to improve their outdoor hockey game. The entire
course of instruction will be taught on an indoor hockey playing
field enabling players to develop grass, turf and indoor skills
all at the same time. The program of instruction will progress through
all the basic hockey skills and into the high speed techniques and
tactics of 1 vs. 1, 2 vs.1, 3 vs. 2, 3 vs. 3, and 5 vs. both 2 and
3. The course will encompass 4 hours each Saturday morning and the
final session will encompass testing and evaluation for each participant.
Our Indoor Hockey Camp
is limited to 60 players and is the only Indoor Hockey Camp in the
USA. The head coach for this camp is Heino Knuf, Germany's director
of coaching and one of the National Staff coaches for German Indoor
Hockey. This dynamic hockey program encompasses all the exciting
skills of indoor hockey and challenges you in every aspect of your
game. Players will be required to arrive with a fundamental understanding
of the indoor game. Most of these indoor techniques and tactics
that you will learn you will also be able to transfer to your outdoor
field hockey game. And when you play on Astro Turf either in high
school or collegiate hockey, you'll quickly discover that these
indoor skills will make you a much more successful outdoor player.
Indoor hockey is much more than just changing to an indoor stick,
it's an entirely new dimension of hockey and one you'll quickly
develop a "love of playing" when you learn the tricks,
skills and tactics of "Real Indoor Hockey".
Mendoza Hockey Course
This will be our fourth consecutive year of offering this very special
course taught by Coach Rudy Mendoza, Argentina's former National
Team Coach and Olympic Team Coach and the course has now been expanded
several extra days with 10 actual days of training and 2 periods
of one day each as rest breaks. No other course offered in the USA
will advance your game as far as you will go with coach Mendoza.
By the end of your first 5 days of training you will discover that
you have a huge array of new skills and new understanding of these
skills and their function and effectiveness. Then for the remainder
of this course, you'll take these new skills to levels you never
knew possible. Upon completion of this very special course, you
will have expanded your level of technical and tactical understanding
far beyond any of your peers. The course will not only incorporate
technical and tactical training, but also a considerable number
of hours in the classroom examining your skills that were video
taped each day and those same skills as executed by National Team
players from around the world. Both mentally and physically, you
will leave this course of instruction more prepared than anyone
else in the USA for your high school or collegiate hockey season.
This course will also have several current top level division 1
and 2 coaches participating in selected days of instruction. It
is one course that no top level player can afford to miss.
