We try to get our players outside of their comfort zone. We work on INDIVIDUAL SKILLS EXCLUSIVELY. We do lots of HIGH TEMPO STICK HANDLING, POWER SKATING AND EDGE WORK drills. We try to improve foot and stick speed, agility, core, wrist and arm strength through various innovative drills and exercises. We do more drills in one session, than 99% of our students are exposed to in their team season.

The Chris Finnerty High Intensity Hockey School runs very high tempo AFFORDABLE skills sessions and clinics/camps in the City of Ottawa and in the Ottawa Valley in Renfrew and in Arnprior. We focus exclusively on INDIVIDUAL skill development and not team drills. We do not waste time on the ice, as we try to keep our students moving as much as possible. Regardless, if you play NCAA, OHL, AAA, or house league, our unique and challenging drills can help you reach your potential.
" I recommend Chris' clinics to boys and girls of all ages, who are serious about improving their on-ice skills."
