In addition to working with minor hockey teams, High Calibre also runs annual summer skills camps for individual players in the novice/atom, peewee and bantam/midget age groups. The focus of these camps are power skating, edge control, passing, shooting, defence and forward-specific drills, along with small area games and scrimmages. The idea is to prepare players for the upcoming season.
