Please be aware that this is a busy time of year in Lake Placid. You
must book early in order to receive our negotiated group rates by the

Hockey cannot negotiate any further.
FORUM

aspects of the game of hockey. The presenters will be prominent coaches from the
National Hockey League (NHL), American Hockey League (AHL), Europe and the
National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA).
Group Breakout SessionsCoaches will select either the 12 & Under or 13 & Older age group upon registering for
the event. The breakout sessions will be based on those two age categories. Attendees
will explore innovative approaches to coaching through intensive sessions dedicated
