Valleyview Secondary School is very proud to be the home of our local Hockey Canada Skills Academy.  Our academy provides all hockey players of all levels an opportunity for elite level coaching/training for our student-athletes while continuing with their regular academic course studies at VSS.  The schedule for our student-athletes has each of them enrolled in 2 blocks of hockey academy (1 per semester) throughout the school year and receive on-ice instruction an average of 2-3 times per week (60 minutes each).  Students are also scheduled into dry-land training/programs and classroom instruction following the Hockey Canada curriculum.  Under the leadership of Head Coach Kyle Allen, our academy is very fortunate to also have the following individuals as part of our support coaching/teaching staff:  Don Hay, Michelle Pepin, Michael Hails, Tyler Love, Scott Ferguson, Greg Kozoris (Acceleration Fitness) and Peter Soberlak (Sports Psychologist-TRU).  The academy is based out of Valleyview arena as our practice facility and the new Acceleration Fitness training center as our dry-land training facility.  We currently have 2 sections.  

All participating students are enrolled at VSS and pay an annual academy fee of $900 to pay for all associated costs.  If you are interested in our HCSA and require more information about the program or the application process, please feel free to contact Mr. Chris Horton, Vice-Principal. chorton@sd73.bc.ca
