Our class lengths are based on the recommendations provided by USA Hockey.Studies they have done show that classes beyond these lengths are counter productive to properly learning hockey.
Skaters that skip levels or advance without our permission put themselves at risk of having a skill level well below their peers and pose a safety risk to themselves and others. We find it is highly discouraging for skaters to advance without the necessary skills as they will be unprepared for the new challenges.
An Ice Bear is a ferocious creature who strives to perform at a peak level and always works hard. An Ice Bear works with a pack to take out the competition. The Ice Bear is the mascot for the Travel Hockey Program.
We highly recommend skaters complete a full season in the IBPL prior to moving into the travel hockey league. Without the experience of the IBPL, skaters will not be prepared for the game play and intensity of travel hockey.
We highly recommend skaters successfully participate in one session of level 2 prior to entering the IBPL. The IBPL is designed to teach game theory and offer an opportunity to play cross ice games in a league format prior to beginning a travel program.
