CAMP/CLINIC INFO 2024

CFA Membership

The CFA Membership program is designed to be a consistent development path from April through October. Our goal is to provide the best possible skills training for players of all ages. The advantage of the membership program is the consistency. Our staff works with players from 4 years old through the NHL. This gives us the advantage of being able to see development at a large scale. We know what players need in an offseason. The consistency allows us to give players a proper development path so they are at their best at the start of every season.  


CFA - Power Skating Club (PSC)


PSC is an opportunity to work on skating at the end of the season and continue to brush up on these skills throughout the year.


CFA - Stickhandling Club

Develop stick handling skills with a hybrid of virtual and in-person sessions that will allow players to maximize their time and training. In-person sessions will occur throughout the hockey season. The consistency and repetitions experienced during Stickhandling Club will result in greater body positioning, speed of execution, and pass receiving.


CFA - Summer Power Skating

Power Skating is a piece of a development players of all ages are always in need of. Improving edge control and a greater understanding of skating mechanics is invaluable. Having multiple sessions a week during key development months is a great addition to any players summer development plan.


CFA - Winter Termite/Rookie Skills

We will be offering a Termite/Rookie skills session this upcoming hockey season. Ice sessions will be at Scheels Arena. These sessions will be run by CFA coaching staff, Fargo Force coaching staff, and Fargo Force players. This is a great opportunity to keep kids moving on the ice with a puck on their stick in a fast-paced organized fashion.  

CFA - Tryout Prep

Tryout Prep Is a fall session helping to prepare the athletes for tryouts, early season. Getting them in the optimal performance state for the important start to the season. 

 

CFA - HNDL

HDNL (pronounced Handle) is our new on-ice program based around the new equipment we designed and built through CFA. Over the course of decades of hockey skill training, we have come up with the best equipment, techniques, and drills to challenge and teach modern hockey skills. 

The focus during HNDL sessions is to increase puck touches and get players to possess pucks and see plays in small areas. Players having to maneuver pucks in small spaces while skating has proven to be extremely beneficial in the decision-making process and the accelerated development of skills. Plus it has the bonus of being both fun and self-challenging/motivating for all ages and skill levels. 

While we do have set drills for each different on ice apparatus, we also have the ability to adapt each drill to fit each players age and skill level. Much like the rest of the CFA development model, HNDL is ever evolving with the development of skills and we add to the drill book daily.
