Now there is a possibility to sign up for a summer hockey school in Sweden. The camp takes place in Norrköping about 1,5 hours from Stockholm. This camp is a great experience hockey wise and as a summer holiday. 17 sports take part in this camp at the same time at a sports centrum in Norrköping. This is a complete sports experience; every day contains 2 ice practises, 5 meals, and other activities as:
activity town where you can go whenever you have freetime (rink football, beach handball, roller skating, trampolines, skateboarding, biljards, pingis etc.)
Inside activities wall climbing, playstation, singstar, music studio, golf simulator, internet room etc.
Other activities that takes place during the week are; try out sports like american football, wheelchair basketball, gymnastics and swimming. In the middle of the week all sports will compete against each other in a big team spirit competition where all the hockey players together try to execute different challenges. The winning sport will be rewarded in the closing ceremony.
Every week there will be a special musical star performing and also each sport will get a visit from a hockey profile (a professional athlete in their sport). In the final night there is a big disco for all the sports where you can have fun together with all the new friends you made during the week.
Hockey program is run by Hasten hockey the division 1. club in Norrköping. Each group (4 hockey groups) will have 2 educated coaches and also 3-4 assistant coaches that also work as team leaders during the week. Besides two ice practises or games a day there will also be off-ice practises and theory each day.
A normal day at the camp starts around 8.00 and is finished around 22.00.
Housing - The hockey groups and usually football groups will live at the student housing 2 min walk from the ice rink. There will be 6-8 players per room sharing a bathroom and balkony. Players will need to bring their own sheets and pillows.
We are trying to get all the players from SR together that are interested in going and sign up for the second camp week which takes place the 28 june- 4 july.
The camp is for players 11-14 years but I have gotten a permission to sign up players also born 94. The cost is 2795 SEK inclusive sign up fee 500SEk which will be paid back 14 days after you have received a confirmation to attend the camp.
If there are more than one from the same family, the first will pay this amount and the rest 1995 SEK. Ofcourse there is a possibility to sign up your sister or brother to another sport during the same week (if the whole family plans to go)
