The Boston Skippers Spring/Summer program was formed to provide youth hockey players the opportunity to learn the game and have a "total hockey" experience while cultivating their skills. We are committed to the development of each individual player in our program.

The philosophy of the Skippers is in teaching the fundamentals of hockey and allowing highly skilled players to compete with other players of their caliber in both practice and tournament game atmospheres. Too often, we see programs that focus on complex systems rather than the basic skills necessary to separate yourself from the competition. We formed our program because we saw a need to bring hockey development back to the basics.

As the players move through the program from year to year, they are gradually exposed to more complex concepts of the game, while maintaining emphasis on the necessary skills to advance their hockey abilities.
