Each month, N.A.S.C. Hockey offers what no other league in Oshawa does in the form of a focused power skating program at the house league level. Typically, unless a player is involved at the "rep" level, they would not get exposure to the teachings of a structured skating program. All at no additional cost to our participants!

It will be "ear-marked" that the 3rd Sunday of each month (October, November, January and February), will be "power skating day" at the rink. Each month, during your regularly scheduled practice, you will be joined by "Scary Mary" and her "Scary Skate" certified instructors.

It is a prerequisite that all coaching staff must have a team representative present for all power skating sessions. It is mandatory that a team official accompany their team on the ice during these sessions.

The concept is to teach both the “student” and the “teacher” at the same time so that they have the proper tools in place for the coaching staff to continue this teaching during the season.

This program will provide “certified”, on-ice “instructor-led” courses for both players and coaches. 

The philosophy is simple.

 “Skating is a key factor to enjoying this game that we love. Hockey is only fun when you’re playing the sport, not having to work at it.”
