OPTIMIST CLUB OF OAKRIDGE ACRES
London, Ontario
HOCKEY
HOUSE LEAGUE
All registered boys and girls play regardless of ability. The primary goals are participation and to
play for fun. The schedule usually consists of one game and one practice per week. The teams are
balanced by ability, while taking into account player postal codes to form teams in general areas.
Leagues at most levels play teams solely within the Oakridge program, keeping travel to a
minimum.
COMPETITIVE/SELECT
Teams are selected, chosen on ability, from players trying out. Teams participate in leagues,
including teams of comparable ability from other areas of the city and surrounding municipalities.
There are approximately two games and one practice per week. Teams usually play in three or four
weekend tournaments over the season to supplement their schedule. This type of hockey generally
requires more comittment from both the players and parents.
CLINICS
Clinics are held for both players and coaches. The clinics are held throughout the fall and winter of
each year. This is a great opportunity to improve player skills and for the players to learn the
correct techniques for skating, passing, shooting and defensive skills. Details of clinic dates and
times will be announced in the registration newsletter.
