What Parents Need To Know

At Integrity Sports International we challenge parents to ask targeted questions before spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on a hockey camp because they “heard it was good.” There’s a lot more that determines a quality hockey camp than the hours spent on the ice and participating in dry land training.

Parents should plan on asking questions like

• What are the qualifications of the staff?
• What is the cost per hour of ice time?
• What does this program provide that other programs don’t?
• What kind of training and activities will the players be participating in off the ice?

These may seem like simple questions but it’s important to know whose hands you’re putting your child’s youth sports experience in. This person will not only coach you’re child but also help fill a parental role for him or her even if it’s only for one week.

So at ISI we encourage families to write down what they feel is most important, not only for our hockey camps but for any hockey camps you’re considering. Before you decide on a program you need to know what it is exactly that you and your child want to gain from participating in the program.
