HHTD Mission Statement

Dedicated to developing a better skilled, conditioned, game smart athlete.

After being around the game of hockey our entire lives, we see small simple things that are not generally seen by other parents and coaches. Players want to have fun and compete. Parents want structure and discipline. Our training staff has discovered with their involvement in sports that the most important goal is to do the right thing for the kids. The hockey, the games, the parents will take care of themselves if you do the right things for the kids and their development.

Our programs are based around the teaching of solid fundamentals and positional play. Working with advanced or beginner players and goaltenders, whether it's the building knowledge of a skill foundation or the refinement of an advanced game, we have the knowledge and experience as a staff to "RAISE THEIR GAME" and have fun doing it.

We believe each player is an individual and there is no one-way or cookie cutter design that players need to follow. Some athletes are gifted with speed, strength and endurance, others with agility and vision at reading the play.
It is our goal to meet each player/goaltender where they are at and take them to the 'NEXT LEVEL'

We provide the best hockey instruction available in an exciting positive learning environment for players of all ages. We believe that a player’s development is determined by his/her own dedication and effort in conjunction with the teaching of a highly trained and motivated staff. All activities and drills are designed to break down and develop each player's critical skills through technique training.

With this training & development atmosphere, HHTD strives to create a positive, 'no-fear' attitude at each session, where it is OK to fall down, and it is OK to struggle with an activity. If the athletes feel safe and secure in their surroundings, they will feel comfortable pushing the envelope. We make everything safe and fun where children push themselves and aren't afraid to fail.

We believe this is one of the strongest attributes of any development program. The dedicated efforts by our staff have enabled each player to be comfortable with what they are doing, learning what is being taught, and most importantly, improving. HHTD prides itself on its teaching skills, its ability to develop athletes, and most importantly, our passion for the game and the players that play it. Our instructors are teachers and educators first, passionate hockey players second.

Word of mouth and referrals will continue to be our largest form of marketing! We provide a quality program that players enjoy and will come back to. These services include instruction for all skill levels for both players and goaltenders.

The instructors bring with them a wealth of experience and knowledge in the game of hockey and an understanding of how to make it to an elite level of hockey. The variety of experiences brought by each of the instructors will teach players and goaltenders the skills they require to succeed in the sport of hockey.

HHTD provides personalized instruction that educates and develops students in both the physical and mental aspects required to excel in hockey. HHTD communicates with students and parents to help design a personalized teaching plan catered to meet each player's individual needs. This enables HHTD sessions to be customized and geared towards what the player needs to attain their ultimate goal - becoming a better hockey player and having fun doing it.
