BTP training facility

The Facility

A purpose-built training center in the heart of the north country, where technology and coaching combine to turn long winter reps into real growth.

Where Development Happens

Our facility in Lino Lakes is built for one thing: making players better. Eight dedicated training stations pair advanced hockey technology with expert coaching — from the shooting simulator and Rapid Shot to synthetic-ice skating trainers and video analysis. Every rep is focused, tracked, and coached.

Eight Training Stations

Every rep tracked, measured, and coached — the tools that set BTP apart.

Shooting Simulator

1 · Shooting Simulator

Interactive projected targets and games that turn shooting reps into competition — release, accuracy, and quick-shot decision-making, all scored in real time.

Rapid Shot

2 · Rapid Shot

Rapid-fire repetition trainer that feeds pucks and tracks every shot. High-volume reps build a faster, more accurate release under game-speed pressure.

Rapid Hands

3 · Rapid Hands

Reaction-based stickhandling system with an on-screen scoreboard — sharpening hand speed, quickness, and puck control against a live clock.

Heads Up Hockey

4 · Heads Up Hockey

Eyes-up puck-handling trainer that forces players to read the screen while controlling the puck — building the head-up habit elite players rely on.

Skier's Edge

5 · Skier's Edge

Lateral power and edge-explosiveness trainer. Side-to-side loading builds the stride push and stability that translate directly to faster skating.

Stryder skating trainer

6 · Stryder

Skating-specific slide trainer that grooves proper stride mechanics and edge control — building powerful, repeatable technique off the ice.

Ultra Slide synthetic ice

7 · Ultra Slide

Synthetic-ice slideboard for edge work, stickhandling, and shooting on a real gliding surface — year-round, weather-proof ice reps.

Shooting Video Analysis

8 · Shooting Video Analysis

Frame-by-frame video breakdown of shooting mechanics — puck placement, weight transfer, and release — so every player sees exactly what to fix.

Off-Ice, Fully Realized

Group training session

Off-ice training at BTP isn't an afterthought — it's core to how we develop players. From strength and stickhandling to shooting and skating mechanics, our facility lets athletes get quality reps in a focused environment, all year long.

Small groups, expert coaching, and technology that makes every session count.

BTP Strength — Powered by Change by Charity

Skills and strength, under one roof.

Our training facility is directly connected to our strength space — home to BTP Strength, powered by Change by Charity. Skill development and strength training happen in the same building, so athletes move seamlessly from the ice and skills stations to the weight room in a single visit.

Every station serves the same mission: specialized development of the three skills that matter most — skating, stickhandling, and shooting. This is where fundamentals become elite.
