Repetition is the mother of all learning. This saying is really old…old enough to be one of those latin phrases that’s engraved into stone: Repetitio mater studiorum est. It is the same in the classroom as it is in sports. If your child’s hockey practices look like this, how much improvement do you think will happen?
Increasing the repetitions for our players should be a goal within all of our hockey practices and one of the best ways to do this is to break our players into smaller groups and utilize the ice surface more efficiently though station based practices. Ice time is a valuable commodity; we need to use it wisely for the development of our kids.
