SPRING 2027 PROGRAM

The BC Blackhawks Spring Program is built for motivated players looking to develop their game, compete at a high level, and make the most of their spring season.

Over 12 weeks, players will take part in a structured development program combining on-ice training, off-ice development, competitive tournament play, and a strong team environment.

WHAT IS INCLUDED ?

24 ON-ICE SESSIONS:

Two development-focused ice times each week designed to challenge players and improve their overall game.

Sessions will focus on individual skills, skating, hockey IQ, positional development, competitive situations, and team concepts.

12 OFF-ICE DEVELOPMENT SESSIONS:

One off-ice development session each week focused on building stronger, faster, and more athletic hockey players.

Training will include age-appropriate strength, speed, movement, athletic development, and shooting work.

COMPETITIVE TOURNAMENT PLAY:

Each Blackhawks team will compete in three local tournaments throughout the spring.

Players will have the opportunity to take what they develop in practice and apply it in competitive game environments.

Teams will also have the opportunity to attend one travel tournament. This will be discussed and decided once rosters have been selected.

BLACKHAWKS TEAM GEAR:

Every player will receive a Blackhawks team package that includes:

• 2 Custom Game Jerseys
• Game Socks
• Pant Shells
• Blackhawks Dryland Gear

PROFESSIONAL COACHING:

Our coaching staff is committed to creating an environment where players are taught, challenged, and held accountable.

Throughout the spring, players will receive consistent coaching and feedback focused on their individual development and overall understanding of the game.

TEAM CULTURE:

Being a Blackhawk is about more than what happens on the ice.

We want our players to compete for one another, be great teammates, develop confidence and leadership, and take pride in representing the BC Blackhawks.

Our goal is to create an environment players want to be part of and look forward to coming to every week.
