Checking Clinic
The Rockets offer a 2 hour checking clinic for players moving into the Bantam age classification that will address the basics of body checking, angling, and safety to ensure that your player transitions smoothly into the demands of checking in the 14U age group. Through the checking clinic, players will learn the fundamentals of checking to ensure that they know how to protect themselves, and others, from injury.
If your player is participating in or trying out for Spring hockey teams including Central States, Rockets Elite, or High School B League, this is a great opportunity to become prepared for body contact!
