Quick facts
About NTC Hockey
NTC Hockey operates out of Westwood Arena in Etobicoke, Toronto, providing off-ice and on-ice development sessions for youth hockey players. Founded by Dan Blackburn, the programme offers three core streams: a dryland training programme focused on speed and strength, skating treadmill sessions for technique and power, and shooting and puck control workouts targeting puck-handling skills.
Sessions are designed for youth players across skill levels, with coaching staff delivering personalised instruction in each format. The treadmill component in particular draws attention in reviews, with parents noting visible improvement on the ice after a relatively short period of consistent training.
What parents say
“My daughters have only been on the treadmill for a few months, and I have already seen big improvements on the tread and on the ice. The coaches are great - their passion for developing hockey players is very evident. Thanks team!”
