More Info & Policies

SUPERVISION.  Safety is our number one priority at BOOT CAMP HOCKEY!

A.     There will be a DUTY OFFICER present at the "Duty Hut" (Main Desk) on a 24-hour basis.  This will be the number one priority and the most important job in the camp.  This person will have a pulse and communications line to all that is going on at BOOT CAMP HOCKEY at all times.  The Duty will also keep a detailed LOG BOOK of everything that occurs at camp which will be an official record of all activity.

B.     Each Group of players will have counselors with them at all times.  They will have total accountability at all times – keep in mind that one of the methods of this camp is that each player will also know where his/her teammates are at all times.

C.     Each senior counselor will have at a minimum experience at the College Division I, Division III or Junior Hockey level and we will try to have representation from each of our Nation's Service Academies (US Naval Academy, West Point and US Air Force Academy).  This means that this group of counselors will have lived with leadership and responsibility duties in their past and understands what it means to be responsible for their unit and the well-being of that unit!  Their goal will be to take care of your player and ensure their well-being at ALL times - and they will have been screened and trained to do so with a total understanding of the concept of this camp.

D.  It is obviously understood that a different approach will be taken with each age group of players.  The curriculum and training methods will be tailored for each age group and a dose of caring and understanding WILL happen and be expected at EACH level of play.  Again - we are here to build your player, no matter the age, in a positive way.  At the younger ages, it is more of a fun, yet challenging, camp although we constantly emphasize the leadership aspect of the camp - this is the true difference!

E.     Security will be provided by a professional staff of security personnel at Morrisville State College in Morrisville, NY and our staff.

F.      A list of rules will be provided to every player and parent at BOOT CAMP HOCKEY.  ANY BREACH OF THESE RULES WILL RESULT IN DISMISSAL FROM THE CAMP WITH NO REFUND OF ANY KIND – NO SECOND CHANCES.  We are here to teach responsibility and accountability and have an extremely good reputation.  Many players are here for a serious education as well as wanting to have fun, and we will not let any individuals spoil it for those players as we have a long waiting list.

CHECK-IN.  This will take place from 1:00 – 3:00 followed by an orientation meeting for the parents and players.  This meeting will cover the rules, regulations and operations of the camp – while focusing on the specific goals of the camp.  A review of the entire week will take place as well and any questions will be answered at this time.

CHECK-OUT.  This will take place prior to the player’s final ice-slot on Friday night.

EXTRA OVER-NIGHT STAYS.  Due to certain travel restrictions, we understand that there may be a need to arrive a day early or stay over an extra night.  There will be a $79.00 fee charged which will include room, board and supervision.

PRO-SHOP.  ALL CAMP LOCATIONS HAVE SUPERB PRO-SHOPS!  BOOT CAMP HOCKEY merchandise will be available for purchase at the Command Post. 

 

INSURANCE.  Each player will need personal/medical insurance prior to arriving.  This will be documented in the players file.  Any other special needs will need to be determined and agreed upon in writing PRIOR to the player arriving at BOOT CAMP HOCKEY.

CANCELLATION POLICY.  Prior to May 1 all cancellations will receive a 25% refund. After May 1, you will receive a 25% Letter of Credit for amount paid for a camp the following year and any cancellations within 45 days of the first day of the first camp session will receive no refund of any kind. If the player is injured or becomes sick, he/she will receive a Letter of Credit worth 50% of the REMAINING days left in that camp for the following year. 

MEDICAL.  All players will be required to submit a school physical and a letter of consent to treat.  There will be a medic on duty and present at the camp exclusively for BCH's use.  There is a medical facility for emergency treatment on campus (Morrisville, NY) for those who submit their physicals and consent to treat forms and a local hospital only minutes away for anyone if further treatment is needed.

EMPLOYMENT.  Anyone who would like to inquire about employment with BCH, should contact Major Andersen via email at Major@BOOTCAMPHOCKEY.com.
