Join us Thursday nights at Barnburner and Rinx beginning February 12 for a shooting clinic on our synthetic ice, followed by an hour on-ice with Zack Fitzgerald of Full Tilt Hockey. Open to players aged 12 and up.

Players will come to Barnburner from 7:15 to 7:45 for a 30 minute shooting session on our synthetic ice, focused on pulling and shooting, angle changes, catch and shoot, one timers and scoring goals in tight.

They will then make the quick trip (less than 300 meters) to Rinx, where they will skate from 8:15 to 9:15 with FULL TILT HOCKEY. The skate will focus on shooting, passing, skating, and help them integrate their skills into a game at high speed and intensity.
