High School Prep Program at Bowie (September - November) High School Prep Program – 2019
The Bowie Hockey Club (BHC) is adding a High School Prep program at the club this year in order to make hockey more accessible to student athletes in the area. The plan was born out of desire to eliminate late weeknight practices for students and also to give high school players a chance to prepare for the high school season, improve their games, further refine their hockey skills, and have fun. This is not just a glorified stick and puck session, it will be run by experienced coaches and players will improve. Players playing high school hockey but not on travel or rec teams are eligible for the program. Skilled players who have played previously, but are not current playing on a team may qualify as well. In this case please contact Andrej Kolaja at bhcscheduler@yahoo.com for details.

Features of the Program:
- No late weeknight practices.
- 12 ice slots, 75 minutes each at Bowie Ice Arena.
- Players will meet on Sunday evenings (either 530p or 700p) from September 8 through November 24.
- There may be opportunities for ice time on Saturdays and after the 12 sessions end on a fee basis.
- Highly experienced coaches will work with the players on skills and skating for part of the session and then there will be a low contact/no checking pond-hockey game for the remainder of the time.
Players in this program may also request to be student coaches, shooters at goalie practice, and be involved in other on-ice BHC activities with approval of the Club President and Hockey Director.
