Cognitive • Shooting • Mental Performance

This 6-week high-performance training series is designed for female athletes competing at the U15–U18 levels who are serious about their development and preparing for higher levels of hockey.

Each 90-minute session combines skill development, cognitive training, and structured mental performance work to help athletes execute skills more consistently under pressure.

Training is led by Mind Body Hockey, with a mental performance component delivered by Mitch Wall (MSc), Mental Performance Specialist with Optima Athletic, providing athletes with practical psychological tools to support confidence, focus, and performance.

Session Structure

70 minutes – Shooting, puck control & cognitive training

High-repetition skill work focused on developing efficient shooting mechanics, puck control, and scoring ability in a variety of game situations. Athletes train different shot types and releases while incorporating puck protection, deception, and movement. Cognitive training is layered into the session through reaction, awareness, and decision-making drills that challenge athletes to process information and execute quickly under pressure — mirroring the pace and demands of high-performance hockey.

20 minutes – Mental performance training

Led by Optima Athletic, each session includes a focused discussion on mental performance, supported by practical tools and weekly resources designed to help athletes build confidence, manage pressure, and develop consistent performance habits.
