This blog will focus primarily on reviews of Hockey Camps in Vancouver, BC Canada and in Japan that my son (who is currently 8 - 2003 birth year) has attended since he started to play hockey 3 years ago. We currently live in Japan, and he plays hockey here, however we come back to Vancouver once or twice a year to visit family and use the opportunity to put him into a hockey camp to improve his skills and also to see how he stacks up against the Canadian kids.
If you're like me, when you choose a hockey camp for your son or daughter to attend, you want them to have the best experience they can, and learn as much as possible. What I've found, however is that there is almost no information online on the quality of the various hockey camps available, and when your child actually attends a camp, the quality level varies quite significantly.
Now, I don't claim to be a hockey camp expert. I have played hockey in the past, and continue to play in a beer league here in Japan, however I am primarily just a dad looking to maximize the return on our investment of time & money. I'd also like to share our experiences, as I feel this may help other people out who are struggling to decide which camps to put their kids into.
Keep checking back for more info on the various camps, and feel free to comment or submit your own reviews...

Thanks so much for creating this blog it is absolutely excellent!!! I wish more people did this to help parents like me and you not waste so much time and money on hockey schools/camps that don't live up to what them and their website say!!!
