2018 SPRING SEASON
REGISTRATION INFO Register online: www.chiefshockeyclub.org Spring Season Overview:
Once again this year, the Chiefs Hockey Club’s 2018 Spring Season will be uniquely designed to focus on the specific needs of each player, regardless of their skill or tenure. At one evaluation session, coaches will rate each player via multiple skills criteria and then players will be placed into groups containing players of similar skill levels. Player groupings and ice schedules will be published the week after evaluation. These groupings will allow coaches to specifically tailor practices to uniquely benefit each player’s particular needs. Additionally, internal Club games will be similarly grouped, allowing for much greater “in game” participation and puck possession by all players, regardless of their hockey skill level. With our Spring game model (no league play and no refs), your player’s time on the ice will also benefit! For example, a typical league game provides approximately 33 minutes of game time for players. In contrast, Spring player ice time will be closer to 50 minutes, as the coaches will serve as referees to keep game play moving along. Prioritizing on each player’s unique needs in the Spring season will best prepare all players for a great experience in the coming Fall/Winter season! Practices and games will once again be held at the Club’s home ice, The Edge in Bensenville. Go Chiefs! Spring Season Inclusions:
