THE Benefits of cross-ice hockey 

 

The key playing benefits of cross-ice are that it promotes creativity, creates an environment for self- learning, increases player participation, speeds up the learning process, improves decision making skills so the player reads and acts quicker, and maximizes skill learning and development.

At a child's earliest and most important development stages, (ages 3-12), this format is even more important to build a proper foundation for long-term success.

A study of hockey games played on the full-ice surface by George Kingston found:

• In a sixty minute running time full ice hockey game with 6-8 year old children, the average player had possession of the puck for 20.7 seconds 

• Youth players had an average of less than 0.5 shots per game in full-ice games.

• In a sixty-minute full-ice game, the actual playing time of the game was 20 minutes and 38 seconds

 

• Individual players are on the ice every third or fourth shift resulting in even less ice time (6 to 9 minutes per player).

_______________

We believe that age and stage appropriate playing surfaces are critical to proper learning, creativity, fun and life-long participation.

We believe that changing the path requires building physical literacy through multisport development and playing seasonal sports.

We believe that our children's future, and the future for hockey in Canada are worth fighting for and hope you can join us in this important mission.
