VELOCITY
HOCKEY CENTER
The Velocity
Hockey Center is a 130 by 65 regulation hockey rink that
is used primarily in the Spring and Fall for our 3 on 3 hockey leagues,
in the summer for our Velocity Skate Hockey Clinics and in the winter
for ice rentals to the wide variety of youth hockey associations
for there team practices.
The Velocity
Hockey Center is a unique hockey rink in that it is two
thirds of the dimension of a regular ice sheet found in a typical
Municipality setting. With the smaller ice dimensions at the Velocity
Hockey Center this will force by nature to help enhance the development
of a players all around hockey skills in the following ways:
- Players
will handle the puck more which in a competitive small rink environment
is going to develop better fundamental skills and a better understanding
of the game.
- Players will
develop faster read and react skills with and without the puck.
The game is faster, which forces you to learn to “Think
fast and play fast.”
- Players
will develop quickness, lateral movement and transitional skating
in the smaller ice surface.
- Players
will work on and develop there shooting and passing skills due
to the much higher tempo up and down game that creates many scoring
opportunities for both teams.
- Players
will be developing there skills and having fun in a different
and unique environment. With that combination it is a very good
thing.
- Players
are playing in a much less structured 3 on 3 hockey game thus
enables them to try new things, not be coached and just go out
and play pond hockey.
- Goalies
will face a lot more shots from all areas. With the abundance
of scoring chances the 3 on 3 game creates, the goalies are forced
to make 50-60 saves a game!
Here at Velocity
Hockey, we strongly feel that players from all ages and skill level
participating in our Velocity Hockey 3 on 3 league, will benefit
greatly in there fundamental skill development from this unique,
fast paced game of 3 on 3 played at the Velocity Hockey
Center.
