Shoot Hard. Score More.
A dangerous shot is one of the most valuable skills a hockey player can have. At NTC, we help your athlete build a faster release, more power on every shot, and the puck control to create and finish scoring opportunities in real game situations — not just in practice.
Who is this for?
Athletes of all ages and positions — forwards, defensemen, every level, beginner to elite. Just like our skating and dryland programs, we build around exactly where your athlete is right now, and exactly where they’re trying to go.
What your athlete will work on
- —Shot mechanics, hand positioning, and release speed
- —Wrist shots, snap shots, slap shots, and backhand shots
- —Receiving a pass and getting an accurate shot off quickly — before the window closes
- —Puck control — forehand, backhand, and through traffic — until it becomes second nature
- —Reading the goaltender and finding the openings other players miss
- —Executing under pressure, late in a shift, when fatigue sets in and most players’ skills fall apart
How it works
Every session is coached on synthetic ice with real-time feedback and purposeful repetition. Your athlete works through drills and game-realistic situations so what they build here shows up exactly when it matters — in games. This is the same hands-on, one-on-one coaching approach you’ve seen across every NTC program, because skill only sticks when it’s coached the right way, every single rep.
What you can expect
Your athlete will leave with a more complete, more reliable shot — and the confidence to use it when the moment calls for it. Not just a better shot. A weapon they trust. A great shot doesn’t happen by accident. It’s built.
Your athlete’s first step starts with one session.
