1) What We Teach (by Age)

U13 Foundations: first touch, protection turns, early scanning, confidence through traffic.
U15 Situations: regroups, beating pressure, delay tactics, inside-lane attacks.
U18 IQ: layered entries, puck placement choices, timing to middle support.

2) How We Track Progress

Film metrics: entries kept, exits completed, slot touches, puck recoveries.
Weekly loop: teach → reps → pressure reps → cue for next game → upload new clip.
Parent view: you’ll know exactly what improved and what’s next.
