About the U11 Program Delivery

The U11 Pathway is a progressive, learn to play teaching curriculum. This pathway is an important component in the transition from the U9 Pathway and serves as preparation into the U13 Pathway. The U11 Pathway consists of four (4) phases of instruction, designed for players graduating from U9 hockey and for entry level hockey players who may start playing hockey at this age level. The U11 Pathway curriculum introduces, develops and refines the skills of skating, passing, puck control and shooting in a progressive step by step manner.

The U11 pathway affects players aged 9 and 10 years old.  All hockey coaches coaching U11 community sport streams require at a minimum Coach 2 - Coach Level Training.
