JSHA is proud to announce a partnership with Christian Grunnah (Grunnah Power Skating), Tom Anderson (Hockey Elevated), and Dusty Campbell (Next Gen Athletics) for a new 3-day camp. The Camp will take place September 2nd-4th (Saturday-Monday) at Park City Ice Arena.

This tactical training camp will be position specific with only 10 forwards and 10 defensemen per age group (Bantam & High School). We will be conducting video classrooms before each group hits the ice. These video classrooms will complement our position specific tactical teaching on the ice. In addition, each group will be receiving one hour of dry-land instruction each day. With 10.5 hours per player of instruction over 3-days, these players will walk away with a much better understanding of how to play their positions and prepare them for this upcoming season!
