Food Services
CIH Academy features a new, fully-equipped dining area in the Commons where tasty and nutritious meals are served three times a day. Nutrition is an important part of the hockey training program - to perform at an elite level, the human body needs the right kind of fuel. Our food services staff offers a variety of healthy, balanced meals using Hockey Canada's recommended menu to meet the needs of our athletes. Each residence is also equipped with a mini kitchenette to allow for the preparation of snacks for themselves during non-mealtime hours.
Throughout the year our food services staff ensure that our athletes get a variety of quality meals. On occasion there will be thematic menus depending on the time of year such as Halloween, Christmas, St-Patricks, Easter, Hockey Playoffs, etc. Furthermore, athletes are invited to share and prepare recipes from home with our staff. This will be fun for all and a great learning experience. Below is a typical weekly menu of what is offered at CIH Academy:
