Summer Hockey Camps
The Canadian International Hockey Academy is a highly specialized hockey school committed bringing young hockey players to the next level in a fun and positive environment.
We transfer this philosophy to our summer hockey camp programs. Our caring and dedicated staff strives to ensure that all of our camp participants have the opportunity to expand their horizons and achieve their full potential.
With dynamic on-ice sessions and specialized off-ice programming, participants can capitalize on variety and volume, amping up their conditioning and honing their skills in preparation for the upcoming hockey season.
We offer an array of camps, with options for all levels of play and specializations. See below for detailed descriptions of each camp and links for online registrations.
PLAY & STAY OPTION

Participants share a room with one or two others and are welcome to enjoy a communal social area with television and games; as well as many onsite outdoor amenities, such as a beach volleyball court, basketball and tennis courts, ball hockey surface and the soccer field. Scheduled evening activities and occasional extra ice time are also a highlight of our Play & Stay programming.

House Parents
Your child’s welfare is of paramount importance to us. Each floor has a carefully screened and selected house parent that provides a nurturing and caring environment for our campers. House parents are there to attend to the needs of campers, to provide guidance or simply be someone to talk to.
Campus Security
Our top priority is the security and safety of all our participants, on and off the ice. The CIH Academy provides a safe campus where your child will feel secure. The campus is well lit and staffed 24 hours a day. The residence features video surveillance and controlled entry via secure access in the evening and overnight.
All staff and participants are instructed and practice emergency procedures to ensure everyone is well prepared and kept safe.
