The Medina Hockey Player Development Program (MHDP) was created to continue and strengthen our commitment to player development. The MHDP is a skill intensive program that will focus on different areas of development each week over the off-season, using both off-ice and on-ice sessions. Players will be given advance notice of the upcoming weeks focus as well as tasks to be completed at home, on their own. This program will rely on the honor system as well as submitting forms/videos.
Off-ice training sessions will be held at Ubuntu Athletics, 1241 Industrial Pkwy N, Brunswick 44212. There will be two sessions to accommodate appropriate class sizes.
