About the program:

- Our coaching staff is prepared, extremely engaged and knowledgeable
- Planned progression development is at the core of our Lil' Knights program
- Each weeknight skill session has our players learn and improve on the four basic skills of hockey: Skating, Puck-Handling, Passing and Shooting
- Each player receives instruction on proper technique and opportunity to practice those skills in an organized and challenging setting
- Saturday or Sunday is game day, formatted as 4v4 cross ice games with goalies -- allowing all players to "discover" the skills they practiced during the weekday session in a fun and unstructured environment
- We take great pride in hosting the Lil' Knights program presented by The D Las Vegas and believe our two-skates-a-week format is the best development model for the players
