2010-2011
Atom & Mite
Cross-Ice Program
The Cross-Ice Program is designed to
develop fundamental skating and hockey skills for children ages 5 thru 8 (birth
years 2002 to 2005).
Cross-Ice holds practices and scrimmages
every weekend and routinely participates in local Cross-Ice jamborees with
other local programs. Players should
have completed some formal skating instruction and/or completed at least one
NVHC Initiation Program 10 week session. Cross-Ice is intended and structured
to be the next-step for Mite age players interested in moving toward
competitive hockey. However, Cross-Ice
is still designed to focus on fun and skating fundamentals. Cross-ice games /
jamborees focus on participation, fun and positive experience, and scores are
not kept.
Cross-Ice is divided into 2 groups
by age: Atoms age 5 and 6 and Mites age 7 and 8. This season the programs begin on Saturday, September 11, 2010, and run
through Sunday, February 12, 2011.
The cost for the season is $600.

AM at the Mount Vernon Rec Center. Mite XI
