30-Minute Hockey IQ Training + 3v3 Gameplay Application

Build Smarter Players. Build Game-Changers.

At K&M Hockey, we use ice time with purpose. Our 30-minute Hockey IQ sessions are designed to sharpen the most important part of a player's game: their ability to think, read, and react at game speed. Players learn real-world concepts, situational reads, and the mechanics that drive winning hockey.

We teach the "why" behind the game—not just skills, but the decisions that make skills matter.

After the teaching segment, players jump directly into live 3v3 game play, where the concepts are reinforced instantly under pressure.

What We Teach (The Mechanics That Matter)

Puck Support Mechanics

  • When to move into support lanes

  • How to stay connected to the puck carrier

  • Reading pressure to create easy outs

  • Creating and using triangles

  • Support on breakout, regroup, and attack

Aggressiveness Cues

  • When to press and when to contain

  • Identifying loose-puck triggers

  • Reading body position to take space

  • When to pinch, when to hold

  • Recognizing mismatch opportunities

Fundamental Hockey Understanding

Even elite players forget the basics. We reinforce:

  • Offside: how to time entries, use delay routes, and avoid killing rushes

  • Icing: how to avoid it with smarter decisions under pressure

  • Spacing: giving your teammates room to make plays

  • Transition habits: switching from offense to defense instantly

  • Positional awareness: where you should be and why

These aren't "kid basics"—they are non-negotiable fundamentals of elite hockey.

Why 3v3 Accelerates IQ

3v3 small-area games expose players to constant pressure, forcing quick reads and high-level decision-making.

  • More puck touches → faster skill growth

  • More transitions → quicker processing and awareness

  • More pressure → develop poise and problem solving

  • More scoring chances → learn how to attack and defend situations

  • More responsibility → no passengers, every shift matters

3v3 is the closest thing to replicating real hockey at double speed.

What Players Walk Away With

  • Better puck decisions under pressure

  • More confidence in offensive and defensive reads

  • Smarter support routes

  • Stronger understanding of game fundamentals

  • Awareness of when to be aggressive vs. when to contain

  • Cleaner zone entries, fewer offsides

  • Improved transition speed

  • A real jump in hockey IQ
