The series featured boys learning the basic skills about the game: skating, puck control and passing. The television series was based on summer hockey camps held in various locations in Canada and the United States. Children were enrolled for two-week sessions, lived in campus housing and participated in skate time as well as many other physical and classroom activities. The camps and the series was based on Meeker's premise that the game was suffering from poor instruction and poor quality equipment at the junior levels.
