Little Hawks - Learn to Play Session 2

The Darien Sportsplex will have classes for intermediate skaters. Students in this class must have the skating ability to confidently perform Right & Left turns, Snowplow stops, and almost go from a forward to backward skating stride. Class Instruction includes: the further development of puck control, passing, shooting, and scoring. Skating skills for performing forward to backward pivots and lateral crossovers at quick speed are taught and developed.

Skaters will be introduced to game like situations, through scrimmages and games. Students in Major Hawks can now participate in drills for skills and play on a "Scooter" Pond Hockey team.  All participants must be between 3-8 years old and register on line with USA Hockey (free to those under 6 years old).
