ALL-IN-ONE PROGRAMMING
The Jr Raiders Hockey Club integrates professionally instructed high-performance skating, shooting, stickhandling and dryland training, as well as our skating specialist instruction into the team fees. This provides one stop shopping, as our facility allows for all of these activities to happen under one roof. Wave Twin rinks, located in Burlington Ontario, acts as our world class training facility and a Clubhouse for all our Jr Raiders players, providing an environment of fun and team unity.
Our teams compete in regular season play against other Minor Hockey Alliance centres in Southwestern Ontario such as Hamilton, Brantford, Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, Stratford, Woodstock and St. Catharines.
Our program is offered beginning at U8 (2015)- to U18 (2005/2004). Our teams receive four (4) to five (5) ice times a week. Our advantage is that all of our scheduling is done at the beginning of the season, all consistent hours on consistent days.
for Example;
Mondays 5:30pm Coaches Practice
Wednesday 6:30pm Skills Development Session
Thursdays 5:00pm Shooting Clinics
Saturday GAME/ Practice
Sunday GAME/ Practice
FUNDRAISING
We offer teams the opportunity to do an unlimited amount of fundraising, which has resulted in some teams reducing their team fees to zero in the past. Additionally our overall cost per hour is much lower than other Rep hockey programs. This is due to our relationship with the Wave Hockey facility allowing for savings to be passed on to our players. Jr Raiders Hockey Club will also receive Jerseys, Pant Shells, Socks and an apparel package included in team fees.
EDUCATION
Another unique advantage of our program is our focus on Education. As members of Hockey Canada and the Minor Hockey Alliance of Ontario, we understand the importance of education to their players and try our best to minimize league games during the week, Monday to Thursday. NO WEEK DAY GAMES!
