Coaches' Options for Developing Your Team's Skating Skills
There are many options for assessing and working with your team on their skating skills:
On-Ice Powerskating Technique Session
Invite me out to teach a power skating technique session on your hockey practice session. I realize that this is premium icetime but I believe that strong skating skills are as important as strong hockey skills.
It is highly recommended that the coaches be on the ice during the session so that they can pick up the techniques that I am working on with the players. This allows them to learn the technique and work with the team on their skating skills on an ongoing basis.
Players are to wear full equipment, including sticks - no pucks.
