Dear Rochester Area Hockey Coaches and Parents,
The Sport International Hockey Academy is excited to be bringing our 21st
year of instruction to: The Sports Centre at MCC (August 16 - 20)
We still have Spaces available in all age groups , with 15 Skater
Slots and 3 Goalie Spaces remaining. To quickly register online and to
avoid disappointment, please click on the following link (5 camp locations
are already full);

This year, we are implementing many new aspects for our 2010 program. We
will be placing a strong emphasis on positioning and decision making in
game situations. We will be filming each group during a scrimmage
throughout the week, which will create the basis for one of our daily
lectures. Through the use of our telestrator, DVD
Recorder, audio mixer and projector, our staff will be performing a
thorough Game Tape Analysis, to better explain proper team skills and
various offensive and defensive game situation options. This entire
analysis will be available for purchase at the end of the week. We feel
this will be a very valuable DVD to review and study long after your camp
experience has ended. Our Game-Tape DVD, may be ordered for $10.00 at
Orientation or online, upon registration.
We have designed new on-ice drills (Power Skating & Puckhandling), new
off-ice challenges (group and individual competitions) and our newest
invention "Kid Coach" , where all students will have a chance to analyze
The "Gold Medal Olympic Game" with our computerized telestration device.

If you would like to register with only a 50% Deposit, instead of paying
online (in full), you may do so by clicking on the above listed
application link & printing our application, complete the application and
mail or fax to our head office with your deposit. This might be an
attractive payment plan for some families. The remaining balance would be
due at your Sunday 7:00 PM Orientation (night before camp).
As a side note, we just completed our Annual Mandatory Staff Training
Weekend, in Rochester, NY (May 7 & 8). We were able to fully train all of
our new staff members in every aspect of our program, and they also had an
opportunity to work with young hockey players in a free clinic, sponsored
by SIHA, for training purposes. I can safely say that I was very impressed
with our new staff members, regarding work
ethic, polite personal qualities, and their dedication to developing each
individual's hockey skills. It appears that we are off to a great start!
We look forward to having you participate in our 2010 Sport International
Hockey Academy, for a hockey camp experience that will be sure to offer
the perfect combination of both fun and hard work! If you should have any
questions, please contact our SIHA head office at 1-800-724-6658. Enjoy a
very Happy Memorial Day Weekend, next week! We'll see you this summer!
Very Sincerely,
Bob Baldwin
President
