Thrashers To Host A Series Of Checking Clinics At Local Rinks

With tryouts for the 2010-2011 season scheduled throughout Atlanta for the end of May, the Thrashers will host three Checking Clinics at the Marietta Ice Center (May 15), the Kennesaw Ice Forum (May 23), and the Duluth Ice Forum (May 26).  Each clinic will be open to all area players entering Pee Wee and above and will consist of a 30 minute classroom session and 90 minute on ice session.

The four part progression will focus on “Positioning and Angling,” Stick Checks,” “Contact Confidence and Body Contact,” and “Body Checking,” and will serve as a great opportunity for both experienced players as well as players set to begin playing contact hockey in the fall.
