RYAN MELANSON, TRIDENT STAFF

PSP Fitness, Sports and Recreation staff at 12 Wing Shearwater hosted more than 40 young hockey players from August 27-31 for the #27 Hockey Skills Camp. The camp was named in memory of the late Sgt(Ret’d) Rob Sneath, who wore the #27 jersey through numerous gold medal wins with Shearwater Flyers hockey team. The week-long clinic was open to military, DND and NPF families, and introduced young players to skating techniques and hockey skills, and then put them to use with on-ice drills, using teaching techniques taken from the National Coaching Certification Program.
