U15A - Contact Hockey (Checking)
U15A hockey introduces young athletes to body checking and contact, which is also part of the U18A program. Body checking and contact is a critical skill in hockey that, when performed properly can create quality scoring opportunities or help a team regain control of the puck. Just like skating, puck control, passing and shooting, there are key progressions to the skill of checking when taught effectively, which can greatly enhance a player's enjoyment of the great game of hockey. Checking clinics are run annually in the spring by the Jets professional coaches and also at our summer camp program in August, and it is encouraged for all players new to U15/U18A hockey and trying out for rep, to take these clinics offered by the Jets.
