Skating, Stick Handling, & Shooting
Stick Time
Stick Time at the Hub offers the perfect environment to work on your skating, stick handling, and shooting. The Hockey Hub YYC provides nets, shooter tutors, pucks, stick handling aids, and rebounders for players to hone in their skills with.
During these sessions players can utilize the ice for their own practice. Stick Time is intended for players to just skate and work on individual skill development. Parents and coaches are welcome on the ice too, but must respect the other skaters and not monopolize the ice or equipment. Everyone on the ice must pay the drop in fee.
Organized play is not allowed. Organized play is defined as scrimmaging, or continuous play. Practicing set plays is acceptable, and organized drills are acceptable. Set plays and drills have a distinct beginning and end while scrimmaging does not. Team practices are not allowed.

Public Skate
Stressed from the office or looking for something fun to do with the family? Come for a fun filled skate at the Hockey Hub YYC! No pucks, no sticks, not nets. Just skating!
