howard1 Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Hey all, I was wondering if anyone knew of any skills clinics during the regular hockey season? I am looking for private or semi private later on weeknights or weekends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemesis8679 Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 (edited) Tyler Kennedy offers that, and there are a few others. Edited October 9, 2019 by nemesis8679 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twoboys Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Which rinks are convenient to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howard1 Posted October 9, 2019 Author Share Posted October 9, 2019 Any rink east of Pittsburgh would be best but not really picky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Private lessons are sometimes available immediately after school or before school. In the East, look up Next Level hockey (Delmont), Puckmasters (Harmarville), Grant Springer, and Pittsburgh Hockey Academy (Mike Fritz and Dean Whittingham) at Frozen Pond.

Personally I would skip Puckmasters since it isn't on the ice. More of a shooting clinic on synthetic ice. I think Cliff Loya (National Elite) has some weeknight clinics at Baeril. Maybe Tuesdays? Also, they have instructor ice at Pittsburgh Ice Arena in New Kensington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lferg Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 May not be 100% up to day, but will give you a good start. IMHO, the last one has the best value for the money (lots of options / days). But it all depends on how far drive you have, and a few other factors.

Ihearthockey Posted October 11, 2019 Share Posted October 11, 2019 (edited) My boys go to Clif Loya (sessions at both Lebo and Baierl) and they love it. They've also done TK I've found that if you want a more dynamic session, lots of movements and techniques thrown together in one drill, then go to TK. If you want a more focused approach, then go to Clif. My older one did UPMC and hated it. He also did Yuri for Interel and absolutely loved it. It's amazing how two camps, that focus on similar things, have an impact on the player. Edited October 11, 2019 by Ihearthockey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're really good, active sessions, covering a number of skills at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howard1 Posted October 11, 2019 Author Share Posted October 11, 2019 Thanks for all the input, I appreciate it. I am looking at TK and rmu. On TKs website it says his skills clinics are for up to bantam ages, not midget. My son is a first year midget, any other midget age kids go to him?

HockeyDad23 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 For the money I really like the RMU powerskating. Marianne Watkins is tough and really works the kids. Yuri's camp was great too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bb2j3z Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 We have been doing red level Mites with TK on Wednesdays on 6p at Mt Lebanon. It works well with our schedule and the drills are high intensity and varied. We've really enjoyed the TK sessions and they are a good value.
