About Our Application Clinics
New to the NLPS program in 2024 will be our Application Clinics.
Immediately following the High-Intensity Conditioning Clinics at certain locations, a shorter, 45 minute Application Clinic can be added to your registration.
At the Application Clinics, you will take the specific skills you just worked on in the Conditioning Clinic and apply them through different obstacle courses and (as my students call them) GPS drills.
If you're looking to take the skating skills you've worked on and apply them in game situations with pucks, passing and shooting, then add on the Application Clinics to your registration.
What Should I Expect?
-
At the Application Clinics, you should expect a much lower pace of work than what you just got done doing in the Condition Clinics. While the drills are still designed to be done at full speed, you will have much longer breaks between repetitions.
-
Station-based obstacles courses and mapped out movement sequences. Our Coaches will walk you through each drill.
-
Skaters will be divided into different age groups so that any compete drills will be done against an opponent of similar ability.
-
Unlike other NLPS Clinics, there will be passing and shooting as part of many drill sequences.
Who is it For?
-
Ideally, our Application Clinics will be filled by a portion of the players (sorry referees) who just completed the High Intensity or Base Camp Clinics.
-
Skaters looking to apply their skills in more complex sequences.
