Mite Development
HYHA's Mite Development Program is the next step for players transitioning from Learn to Play Hockey. Participants will start to improve the fundamentals of skating and hockey they have picked up in LTP with the goal of moving to our full Mite Program next season.
The program will introduce skaters to the basic skills of skating, puck control, passing and shooting. Participants learn through practice drills and informal scrimmages that are directed by USA Hockey certified instructors who are on the ice at all times. The goal of the program is to ensure the introduction to skating and hockey is a positive experience.
