Winter Skills Clinic

2024-25 Winter Skills Clinic

Rippers is excited to offer high performance skills clinics during the hockey “off season” for players interested in ramping up their individual skills. These are intense sessions that focus on honing advanced stick skills and hitting technique. The number of player registrations will be limited to keep the player-to-coach ratio optimal for individual instruction. We recommend you have some field hockey experience to participate in these clinics, thought please email us if you have any questions.

Our winter stick skills and hitting clinic will be 6 sessions.
