BOARDING CAMP: Kents Hill School

The real deal with Jeff all to yourself for the entire week. This is an awesome opportunity for all defensemen and forwards who are interested in exploring becoming a "mule" as Jeff calls the D-men. Jeff himself was a forward up until prep school. Think about that! Jeff added this specialty camp to the Kents Hill boarding camp repertoire. The intimacy of the small group while spending the entire week with Jeff will make for a lifetime memory. We guarantee to give defensemen a hockey experience that will change their game forever. With the massive expansion of Pro Ambitions Hockey, Inc. it is difficult to have Jeff as the head on ice instructor for the entire week of camp. That is what makes our boarding camps so special. Requests for a two week stay from many of last years boarders prompted us to add yet another unique Pro Ambitions camp. Jeff will be pulling out all the stops and opening up his bag of tricks at this one. As mentioned in other parts of the website, the Pro Ambitions copyrighted curriculum that has been sold to youth hockey organizations nationwide had never included a section on Jeff's D-camps. He has too much knowledge to be passed on about being a "mule" that he keeps it exclusive to teaching himself.

Highlights of the week:
  • Kents Hill School's state of the art rink and weight training facility is tops. This New England prep school is tucked away in between the beauty of mountains and lakes outside of Augusta, ME.
  • 4 hours of on-ice sessions daily
  • On-ice sessions with former and future NHL players
  • Enjoy the beauty of Maine: swimming in the on campus lake. It is crystal clear and beautiful.
  • Lecture from renowned NHL sports psychologist, Max Offenberger. Learn at an early age how to hone your mental toughness and how to maximize a child's confidence on and off the ice. Max works and has worked with many of the NHL's greatest-including Jeff, Cam Neely, Dominic Hasek. He is currently working with many NHL teams-Ottawa, Tampa Bay and more. Max was given the honor from the Tampa Bay Lightning players and brass to take home the Stanley Cup trophy to his home for a week in September 2004. They felt he an important key in winning the championship. Max is an inspirational speaker and has many interesting hockey tales to tell.
  • Enjoy Pro Ambitions Hockey, Inc.'s special double water trampoline with connecting bridge and rock climbing floating volcano. It was quite an investment but worth every penny. Swimming and floating in the middle of the campus' beautiful lake was a nice break after an intense on ice session. The PRO AMB staff spend many hours hanging out with the kids on it, telling hockey stories, answering questions and chatting.
