The Utah Hockey School is not a learn-to-play program. Our camp is built for dedicated travel-level players who are serious about advancing their game. Athletes who attend should have experience competing at the AA or AAA level (or equivalent) and aspire to reach Tier 1/Tier 2 junior or collegiate hockey.

This is an intense, development-focused environment designed for players who can handle multiple ice sessions per day, structured off-ice training, and detailed feedback from high-level coaches. It’s not intended for beginners or recreational players.

We group players based on age, skill, and their registered training track to ensure safety and competitive balance. Coaches may adjust groups during the week as needed. 

Our Camp Combines:

• NHL Style Skating Drills Every Morning
• Professional Coaches with experience playing or coaching in the NHL, NCAA, USHL, NAHL, and AAA
• Small-group afternoon specialty tracks
• An Olympic training venue
• A structured, high-performance development model

To create a true "Hockey School" environment, and not an over crowded camp.

 Yes. Goalies train separately in the morning with our goalie director, and join in various Tracks in the afternoon to receive shots from players. They receive position-specific coaching all day. 

 Yes. Players stay in hotel rooms coordinated by Steen Sports Systems, supervised by staff throughout the week. Lodging details will be provided after registration. 

Yes. Tuition includes all training sessions, accommodations, and 3 meals per day.

 Yes. Parents are welcome to watch most on-ice sessions from the designated viewing areas unless otherwise noted by staff for safety or space reasons.

 Track changes are handled on a case-by-case basis and must be approved by the Camp Director to ensure proper group alignment and coaching assignments.
