2027 Akeson Hockey Academy Summer Skills Camp — ONE WEEKEND ONLY. A 3-day elite hockey development experience focused on skill development, skating, puck skills, shooting, hockey IQ, and game-like situations. This is the stuff that actually moves the needle.

01

On-Ice Detail

Every rep has a purpose. Skating, hands, and shooting broken down at pro pace — not lines and laps.

Small Groups

Capped at 14 players per group. Every player gets coached, not just a spot in the line.

03

Pro Mindset

Learn what the next level actually demands — from someone who has been there, done it, and wants to pass it on.

Built for Every Stage

Someone Who's Done It

Jason Akeson celebrating a goal with the Philadelphia Flyers

I'm Jason Akeson — an Ottawa forward who played in the NHL and spent over a decade as a pro in Europe and Russia.

I wasn't the biggest or the fastest. I made it on skill, hockey sense, and the kind of detail work most camps skip over. That's exactly what I teach here.

This is the camp I wish I had at 12: real reps, honest feedback, and a clear picture of what the next level actually wants. If your kid wants to get better — truly better — I want them here.

The Résumé.

Nothing here is theory. Every drill on the ice comes from a career built on it.
