The OHF/OHL U-15 Program of Excellence is a development experience designed to educate and inform players and parents to best prepare them for the next steps in their hockey journey. The goals of the program include: to introduce players, families, and team staff to high performance hockey, Hockey Canada's Program of Excellence, and the Ontario Hockey League; to create a unique and special life and hockey experience for all players and staff involved; and to develop players and staff both on and off the ice. 


Players will participate in intense, high performance on and off ice sessions and seminars. On-ice sessions will be run by Hockey Canada and OHL personnel and will include four practices focusing on individual skills, team tactics, small area games, and a position-specific practice. There will also be two games throughout the course of the weekend. Off-ice sessions will include topics such as Mental Health, Sports Psychology, Nutrition, Fitness, and Off-Ice Testing.
