Does your kid SKATE ALL THE TIME but for some reason can't perform in games?

Players who are so busy with skills, off ice training and are constantly skating are naturally going to be some of the most skilled players you meet

Makes sense right, they do the physical work

But whats often lacking is that they haven’t developed their Mental Game to the same level

So many players in this position experience Mental Blocks

You see this when players freeze or hesitate too often on the ice when they get the puck or need to make contact

Their nervous system is locking their body up to protect them

Instead of letting their skills fire automatically

This sometimes needs its own type of training to solve in many cases, especially when more reps hasn’t fixed the issue yet
