Adults Passionate About Recreational Ice Hockey Invade Toronto

July 15, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Sports News
Franklin, Pennsylvania (July 15, 2006) – Weekend Warriors Adult Hockey Academy is hosting a Level II camp in Toronto, Ontario, Canada September 1 to 4, 2006, at Canlan Ice Sports - Etobicoke.

Level II camps address most of the basic skills, but more quickly and at a higher level. The accelerated pace allows greater focus on the team game, including positioning, breakouts, and game strategy.

Unlike most Weekend Warrior camps, which run Thursday evening through Sunday morning, the Toronto camp is scheduled over Labor Day weekend, and will run Friday evening to Monday morning.

“We try to pick great locations for our camps,” says Rick Parisi, Weekend Warrior Adult Hockey Academy owner, “We make it fun and easy with hotel discounts and airport shuttles.” In addition to theater, museums, shopping, and international dining, the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) is going on during this time. “Toronto is a great location for this,” Parisi said, “players love to come here to see the Hockey Hall of Fame.”

The coaches for the camps are collegiate level coaches. “Part of the reason people love these camps,” Parisi said, “is because these coaches love the game just as much or more as the players do. We’re all here because we’re passionate about hockey.”

The Toronto camp has a few remaining openings. Other 2006 camps are slated for Morristown, NJ (women-only) and Juneau, AK. Visit www.weekendwarriorshockey.com or call toll free 1-888-333-9924 for more information.
