"her time with the college group was, in her opinion, one of the best (if

not THE best) things she's ever done for her hockey."

 

"skating several times a week with

excellent players, in creative drills and fast-paced game settings made a big difference in my game."

 

"It is a great learning atmosphere; how relaxed everyone is, while at the same

time aiming to play the game as well as it can be played."
