Philosophy

Ihave learned the game of hockey from some ofthe best coaches in the world.

From theirteachings,I have found a formula for success. A playermust possess

speed, toughness andintelligencetoexcel in this great game. During the player's

timeat Northern Elite Hockey, you can be assured thatevery drill and lesson

will include at least one ofthose traits. My method of teaching revolves

around showing the players the right way, not theeasy waytoplay hockey.

Northern Elite Hockeyprides itself with providing its students with topnotch

hockey education. To accomplish this, Ibring in some of the brightest hockey

mindsaround, who are eager to share their knowledge.I make sure that the

instructors at my camps/clinics are as passionate about teaching young

players as I am. To make sure that each player isgetting the attention they

deserve, I keep a lowplayertoinstructor ratio. My goal is to help eachplayer

reach their goals in hockey, while at thesame time teaching them lessons that

will gobeyond the game.
