American Development Model (ADM)
It’s a detailed plan for long-term athletic development related to the sport of ice hockey.
What is the philosophy behind this model?
The philosophy is simple. We want to promote recreational, instructional and competitive hockey within the Minor Hockey Associations of New York State. By making some changes in our structure we will increase the opportunity for players to learn and develop basic skills, through high-tempo practices without the distractions associated with an overemphasis on winning. Skill development will be encouraged at all age groups, regardless of ability, and we will seek to promote an enjoyable recreational experience in which ALL AGE LEVEL players can learn and have fun.
In addition New York State has a brochure regarding the ADM Program. >>>> Link
