New Drills Hub

A new drill hub for Coniston coaches will soon be available. This will include practice plans, drills and more! Keep an eye out. We hope to launch all of these for the new 2019/2020 hockey season.

Until then, enjoy your time away this summer. Play lots of sports outside of hockey to build up on other skills and have fun!

Making the new drill hub happen, we will be using Polaroid Cube Act II action cameras to capture on ice drills. These are available at B&H Photo & Video on sale now if you would like to get your own. Once we get to using these we’ll post a full review of these affordable little action cameras.
