Summer Program Details

Specifics will be announced later, but we wanted to give players a heads up on what is planned for the summer months of June, July, and August in terms of team activities and training:

(1) All players who will be playing on the team in the Fall will have exit meetings with Coach Jabar via phone calls between player and coach.

(2) During the exit phone meeting Coach Jabar will assign each player with a player-specific off-ice summer training program and it is imperative that the player follow this program as prescribed by Coach Jabar.

(3) There are no official team activities of any kind planned for June.

(4) In June, Players (with my assistance) should organize some voluntary practices to stay in shape and keep sharp. This is particularly important for those players attending the MAHA or Mid-Am Selects Camps.

(5) In July we will have official coach-run team practices held one day per week. Players are welcome to continue organizing their voluntary practices on other days.

(6) The first two full weeks of August (August 6 - 10, and August 13 - 17) will be an intense Pre-Season Training Camp. This camp will be run by Coach Jabar, will be held locally, and is mandatory for all players. More details to follow. Note: This camp might be open to any player who attended the Spring Training Program who wants to attend this camp as well, more details about this will follow.

(7) Regular team practices will resume on/about Tuesday, August 21st.
