North Summer Training Program

We’re happy to announce exciting changes for the 2025 North Youth STP! With Coach Taylor dedicating full focus to the high school program, Tim Conboy will be taking the lead in organizing and operating the STP for North Squirt through Bantam.

This past season, we saw incredible progress with Power Edge Pro (PEP) training—players across our entire association gained confidence and skill with the puck. Now, we’re building on that success! This summer’s STP help players take their next step in development with:

✅ PEP Training – Advancing puck control and agility
