Experience Hockey at the Academy
Air Force Hockey Camp gives young players the opportunity to train at the United States Air Force Academy while learning from Air Force Hockey coaches and experienced instructors.
The camp is designed primarily as a technique, strategy and skills camp. Players work on the individual and team skills needed to become more complete hockey players.
Campers are divided into groups according to age and ability, creating an environment where players can receive appropriate instruction and compete against athletes of comparable skill.

Full-week campers receive two on-ice sessions each day totaling approximately three hours of ice time.

Complete Hockey Development
Build the individual skills, hockey IQ and competitive habits required to become a more complete player.
Technical Development
Campers work on skating mechanics, edge work, acceleration, puck handling, passing, receiving and shooting.
Training emphasizes quality repetitions and the ability to execute fundamentals efficiently at game speed.
Because the emphasis is on teaching, skill development and fun, full-contact collision checking is not allowed. Contact checking is permitted and all aspects of checking are covered in the curriculum. Our camp is not a no-contact camp.
