All of the movements made during a 90-minute off-ice session translate directly to on-ice game situations. The HBTC utilizes proper instruction and quality repetitions to give athletes the skills and confidence they need to become better players.

- » The Schwan Super Rink is the largest ice arena of its kind in the world. This state-of-the-art facility features eight sheets of ice under one roof and plays host to some of the largest tournaments in North America.
