Coaches
Northern Edge knows that the foundation for a player’s development lies in the strength of the coach; the year-round coach is the person who sees an individual’s improvements throughout the year, and is responsible for making a better player. For this reason, Northern Edge is pleased to offer Coaching Instruction in a seminar format.
Associations are responsible for organizing the seminar but Northern Edge takes it from there. We use many different styles to “teach” coaches the finer points of the game: video, lectures, open discussions and of course, on-ice skills demonstrations elucidate how to be an effective coach.
Topics include, but are not limited to:
- Being an Effcetive Bench Boss.
- How to Manage a Great Practice.
- Teaching Techniques, Off-Ice Training and Motivational Ideas.
- Specific hockey topics can be taught (ie. How to Teach Defensemen, Specialty Teams and Goal Scoring).
