ADM Learn To Play Hockey Program At Team Toledo Ice House

USA Hockey has introduced a new approach to youth hockey which is called the American Development Model.   ADM is our learn-to-play hockey program geared for children that already know how to skate and are ready to take the next step.

The American Development Model (ADM) is being instituted to help retain youth hockey players and to develop all players. GTAHA is focusing our efforts on the ages of 5 to 8 years old.   The role of the ADM is to provide guidelines, standards and structure, circulate best practices, create a venue for two-way communication – not to create mandates.

The building blocks are to:

• Play – Introduce skills, introduce athleticism, friendships begin, age appropriate training and practice, and fun.
• Love – Develop skills, develop athleticism, develop friendships, age appropriate training and practice, and fun.
• Excel – Focus, prioritize hockey among other activities, friendships, competition becomes more important,
  mastery of skills, and maintain the fun.

The following are the 8 & Under (Mites) recommendations:

• FUNdamentals’ Stage
• Fundamental Movement Skills – A, B, C’s – Agility, Balance & Coordination and Flexibility
• Optimal Window is ‘Speed 1’ – Agility, Quickness, Change of Direction, <5 Sec Intervals
• Off-Ice Training – 1x per week @ 30+ min. Prior to Practice (A, B, C’s + Speed)
• Play Multiple Sports – 25% Hockey – 75% Other Sports
• Divide Players Into Top 1/3, Middle 1/3, Beginner 1/3

The implementation will be conducted by qualified individuals who will be supportive in anyway necessary.
