Parkland Professional Hockey School is returning for a fifth season and will be hosted again this year by Brad Church. Brad, a former Dauphin resident, is a 1995, 1st round draft pick of the Washington Capitals of the National Hockey League. He played for the Dauphin Kings of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League, and the Prince Albert Raiders of the Western Hockey League. During his 10 years as a professional player he has been an instructor at several professional hockey schools. He is happy to return to the Parkland Region to help young male and female players improve their hockey skills in a fun-filled atmosphere.

Brad would like to thank the sponsors, instructors, Dauphin Recreation Services, and all the participants for their involvement last summer. With their help the Parkland Professional Hockey School had a very successful season and we look forward to offering another school in July of 2010.

Once again Brad has gathered several professional instructors to share their individual skills and experiences with the participants. They will provide on-ice instruction in power-skating, shooting, passing, stick handling, and game situation drills. Off-ice instruction will include a variety of sports activities designed to promote fitness, sportsmanship, and team building.

The Parkland Professional Hockey School will be held at Credit Union Place in Dauphin. This new 72,550 square foot facility boasts an ice surface of 200' x 85', standard in the National Hockey League, as well as 1780 seats (600 are 22" club seats).
