The Hikers Hockey Club successfully concluded its Gatorade sponsored Junior Hockey camp with a mini tournament for the participants at the St. Stanislaus College Forum.
The camp was deemed a success by the club since it attracted 43 children ranging in ages from 4 to 16 years, over the two week period. This group included 30 children who had never picked up a hockey stick before. The club also achieved its secondary objective of training young coaches to teach the basics of hockey to the next generation, since junior coaches from the GCC, Old Fort, Saints and Hikers hockey teams all took part in running daily sessions at the
camp. Apart from teaching the basics of hockey, the camp also featured video sessions, football, coordination drills, basic rules of hockey, fun games and an interactive goalkeeping demonstration conducted by national women’s team goalkeepers Alysa Xavier and Jonelle Webster.
DDL sales manager Alexis Langhorne also gave the camp participants a talk about the importance of proper hydration in sport. At the conclusion of the camp each participant was presented with Pepsi silicone bands, Gatorade information brochures, a Hockey Core Skills DVD and contact information for all four Hockey Clubs that helped conduct the camp.
