Balmoral Hall will continue to provide a Skating Skills program component of the Grade 3 – 5 athletic curriculum. This program supports the Manitoba Department of Education and Training initiative of promoting healthier, active lifestyles in students.

All Grade 3 - 5 students will be participating in on-ice skating sessions once a week for a seven week block.  Students will be lead through a progression of skills that focus on three fundamental motor skill development areas: agility, balance, and coordination. Emphasis during on-ice sessions will be placed on skill development and participation in activities.  The program aims to provide students with a foundation of ice skating skills while furthering their abilities and involvement in skating and overall fitness. The program is coordinated and taught by Ms. Anne Hedley, Development Program Coordinator of the BH Skating and hockey program.

Balmoral Hall is excited to offer the hockey development program for the 3^rd year. This program is available for students grades 6 through 12, and is an opt-in, fee based program.  The intent of the program is to provide a holistic approach to student-athlete development, with on-ice sessions supplemented with off-ice sessions.

Students will be lead through a progression of skills that focus on developing their ice hockey abilities. Progression of these skills will focus on individual technical skills and tactics. There will be 12, one hour, on-ice sessions, and 7 off-ice sessions
