NHL and Junior talent will serve as guest instructors when the Boston Pizza Hockey School goes Aug. 13-17 at Okanagan Training Rink.
Pros Jerred Smithson (Panthers), Chuck Kobasew (Avalanche), Eric Godard (Stars) and Andrew Ference (Bruins), and BCHLers Alex Gillies (Salmon Arm) and Dylan Chanter (Merritt) will help head instructors Mike Burke and Jesse Hunter as they deliver skill development programs for players ages five to 13.
The programs are specifically designed to help increase each player’s skill level by breaking down skills and teaching through repetition. The $300 fee includes two ice times per day, dry-land training, lunch and jerseys. The sessions are available for three age groups – beginner (ages 5-7), intermediate (8-10) and advanced (11-13). Programs are filling up, and registration is first come, first served.
