Find the Right Training for Your Player by Josh Levine With so many options, picking the right summer training program for your athlete isn’t easy. The first step is identifying what your athlete needs from a hockey skills perspective and athleticism standpoint. Do they need to work on their skating and edge work? Do they lack knee bend when they skate and so need to focus on building the strength and mobility required to skate properly? Equally important is understanding your player’s temperament and personality. Are they intrinsically motivated? Or do they perform better when surrounded by peers that push them? Do they need to train in smaller group settings or do bigger camps work better for them? There are plenty of questions every parent should be asking themselves to help determine the best possible training camps for their skaters this summer. But for this article, let’s focus on understanding how best to pick a camp based on hockey specific skills and athleticism. Skating and edge work should be a major focus for all youth and high school hockey players. I’ve never seen a peewee skater and thought, “no need for him to work on his skating in the off-season.” Skating is the foundation and the calculated approach even professional hockey players take on it in their off-season training is a good model for our youth skaters to follow. Learn how to place greater pressure on your edges, improve your stride recovery, extend your pushes, etc. In addition to form corrections, players need time devoted to overspeed. Sprinting
at top speeds on the ice with sufficient rest is something many players don’t do during the season because of the many other requirements coaches need to tackle. Dryland training that builds overall athleticism is crucial to long-term development. Dryland training with mites and squirts MUST be fun or there is an increased risk of burnout. There are plenty of fun games that work on developing athleticism – whether playing other sports like soccer, doing relay races, or playing freeze tag. For peewees, they are in the golden window of skill development. The more they can stickhandle and work
on their stick skills, the better. Once athletes hit bantams and through high school, the major focus should be on building speed, acceleration, and explosive power. Pick camps that focus on skills and have good work to rest ratios. Off-season practices should be entirely devoted to skill and work to rest ratios should be no greater than 1:3. If a player skates in a drill that takes seven seconds to complete, they shouldn’t be sitting in a long line for a minute and a half before they go again. This is an easy metric for any parent to note, regardless of their hockey knowledge, Finally, your player should have
FUN! Let’s not forget this one. Passion is the #1 ingredient for success. Players should have fun at camps and summer training. Find camps that help instill a joy and love for hockey. I guarantee that investment will compound for your athlete for the rest of their lives! - Josh Levine is the assistant coach of the Bloomington Jefferson Girls’ Varsity Hockey team and owner of Fortis Academy.

How is your tryout going?
by Josh Levine As we enter the final stretch of the regular season for youth and high school programs, it is a good time for any player to ask themselves, “how is my tryout going?” A major misconception is that tryouts are simply a week-long process which occurs in the fall. That is false. Tryouts never end. Every game, practice, team get together, and study session for a tough exam is, in a sense, a tryout. These tryouts may not be as structured or intently watched as those in the fall, but they are incredibly important – for some players, more so than the real tryouts. Because tryouts are flawed, coaches use as much information as they can to make decisions. They’ll often talk to previous coaches to get a sense of their in-season play and impact in the locker room, for example. Below are several reasons why tryouts alone are often not enough for coaches to make decisions: Tryouts often don’t show a player’s character, ability to work with teammates, and leadership skills. You can’t easily determine what a player will do when his teammates are bullying a friend on the squad during tryouts. Will
he stand up for his friend or join the bullies? It’s hard to see from a tryout if a given player will negatively impact the locker room or how a player will deal with adversity when the team is down by a goal during playoffs. The list goes on. Will players that work hard in September do the same in mid-February when it matters most? Tryouts can be a bit artificial. Whatever percentage of players work hard during a tryout, that percentage is certainly lower in January. Tryout hockey is different from regular season team play. The puck goes from scrum to scrum up and down the ice. Some players are great at this game, but lack the hockey IQ and skills necessary to play a style of hockey that emphasizes passing and movement without the puck. Most youth coaches can probably name a few players that didn’t look great in tryouts, yet played very well once team play started. This isn’t to say tryouts are a waste of time! They are useful and needed. Players just need to keep in mind that they never really end.

Do NOT Keep it Simple … at Least not in the Off-Season
by Jack Blatherwick
The color commentator sounded as if he’d just seen the greatest athletic achievement in history. He was ecstatic to explain that the two teams sharing a 0-0 tie after one period, “Kept it simple.” This wasn’t a playoff game, where winning might arguably be the only purpose. This was regular season, college hockey where one might expect improvement to be part of the long-range plan. What is it about SIMPLE, that drives coaches and commentators to convince us that safe, vanilla hockey is the path to greatness? In other sports, it’s about complexity and deceptiveness, and ‘going for it.’ What would the Great One say? Did Gretzky become Gretzky by keeping it simple? Or Datsyuk? Crosby? Kane? Benn? Parise? Is that how we sell 8-year-olds on hockey? “Sign up, and for the next couple decades your goal is to ‘keep it simple?’ Anatoli Tarasov, the father of Soviet hockey, observed that the North American focus was on stopping attacks, while the Soviet philosophy was on creating them. We might stop for a second, and ask why solid defense and creative attack are considered mutually exclusive? We’re the only sport that believes you shouldn’t try to do both with the same passion and creativity. And, while other sports improve each year, we’re stuck in the mud, like football was a century ago, before they discovered the forward pass. The answer is obvious, but it needs emphasis: when the other team has the puck, play your butt off on defense. When we have the puck, it’s ‘No-holds-barred.’ Try anything. Create. Be deceptive. Pass forward, backward, and to empty lanes. Experiment … at least for a few months in the off-season. I waited till spring to print this radical thought. After all, if a player tried a little non-simplicity, and risked a turnover in-season, he or she’d get benched. To chalk up a win for the meaningless record, coaches inadvertently spoil the fun and individual skill development. So, I speak to players. The off-season is your chance. Go for it. Attack with all

Improve rink sense, playmaking, and scoring skills as well as defensive play. Develop better vision, anticipation, and read-react decisions by competing in tight areas – small rinks. Our sport hasn’t improved in fifty years. Oh, players are bigger, faster, and stronger, and they’ve practiced skills by the hour with excellent teachers. But, they’re not better playmakers, because coaches don’t allow it. Fear of the dreaded turn-
over ends any discussion about offensive creativity, just as it would in football if coaches were paralyzed with fear. But in football, the solution is to practice deception and complex passing attacks, so that execution reduces the chance of interceptions. Our answer is to run away from it. For our sport to improve, adults must recognize that skill development in games is more important than a winning record. Keeping it simple all winter is a fool’s approach to being at your best by playoff time. A simple, less skillful approach would be foreign to lacrosse, football, bas-

ketball, tennis, gymnastics, diving, figure skating, half-pipe freestyle … well … every other sport but hockey. A young golfer, Jordan Spieth just took a giant step at the Masters, toward an elite position in history by refusing to sit conservatively on a lead. Four straight days he ignored the dangers of ‘going for it,’ and sprinted out of reach of the pack. His greatest fear seemed to be that he might let ‘simple or safe’ creep into his psyche. Somehow, our spokesmen in hockey have decided that ‘SIMPLE’ is the path to greatness.

4 Pieces of Advice To Kick-Start Summer Training by Kim McCullough, M.Sc, YCS I have to admit, my life is pretty hockey-centric. Even when I take things a little slower in May & June, I’m still in hockey mode. What can I say, I love what I do and I’m always thinking of ways to help players get to the next level. I was in the middle of a workout the other day when I started to think about little tidbits of advice I could share with you to help you get better. And once I started to write the first few down, they just kept coming. I came up with 8 overall and I’m going to share the first 4 with you today. I’ll save the next 4 for later in the summer. So here are the first 4 little pieces of advice that will help you be a better player. None of them are life changing, but they could be a game-changer for you when you hit the ice next season. #1: STOP TRYING TO HIT THE CROSSBAR!!!!! Sorry for yelling, but this is a HUGE pet peeve of mine. We all love the highlight reel goals where a player goes bar-down. But just think about what happens if you miss? Depending on how hard you shoot, it could lead to an easy breakout for the other team or at least a 50-50 puck that you have to battle to get back. I really don’t understand why players cheer in practice and games when the pcuk hits the bar - it’s not even a real shot on net! I want players to aim for the mesh part of the net - because that’s where the goals are. Which we all know we need more of in girls’ hockey. I heard an interesting story about Mike Bossy that I wanted to share. If you don’t know who Mike Bossy is, google him. He is the NHL’s all-time
leader in average goals scored per game and has the record for most consecutive 50+ goal seasons. So he scored - a lot. He would always practice shooting at the end of practice. No surprise there goal scorers do that a lot. But he would always aim for the MIDDLE OF THE NET. Sometimes his teammates would ask why he was aiming for the middle of the net. Seemed like a strange place to aim for a guy who was obviously a sniper. His reply ‘if I aim for the middle and miss, it’s still going to hit the net’. Just a little something to think about - his numbers don’t lie. #2: DO YOGA. I know some of you are thinking, “that’s not for me.” And I used to think the same thing. To be honest, I didn’t think yoga was hard enough or athletic enough. Until I tried it and realized how playing hockey had gotten me all twisted up in the wrong places and I desperately needed to work on my flexibility and mobility. Trust me - those first few sessions weren’t pretty. I started on my yoga adventure in my 2nd year of university. I bought two VHS tapes online and did them each once a week in my dorm room. I wish I had videos of my doing those videos the first few times - very humbling to say the least. But I got better and it definitely made me a better player. How? I recovered faster from games, practices and workouts. I could see a difference in my flexibility and mobility within a few weeks. I felt better. And when you feel better, you play better. I’ve been doing yoga at least once a week every since. I’m not fanat-

#3: PLAY MORE THAN ONE POSITION. Time for a mindset change here. You are not a left winger, right winger or centre - you’re a forward. You’re not a left D or right D - you’re a D. Goalies - well, you’re usually staying put. And sometimes Ds can play forward and forwards can play D. There’s not greater example of how effective a player can be by changing positions that Brent Burns of the San Jose Sharks. The guy was an excellent forward in the NHL, but when he moved back to D, he became a superstar. And I’m sure all his coaches love the fact that they could move him up and down the bench to play either position if they needed to. That’s called versatility. I love having players who can play forward and D. Ds who get moved to forward have a great sense for how to pressure the opponent’s D on the forecheck. They aren’t afraid to go into traffic and play physical in the attacking zone. They always tell me that they feel free up there. And here’s the reality for all you centers out there: as you move up to higher levels, more and more players are centers. You have to learn to play on the wing. I’ll put it into numbers for you: There are only 4 centers on the national team. But there are 8 wingers. If you can play both positions effectively, you give your coaches a lot more flexibility on where they can put you in the lineup. If you are only effective in the middle, you might find yourself on the outside looking in.
#4: PLAY MORE THAN ONE SPORT We’ve all heard this one before. Hockey has become a year-round sport. Players are getting burnt out at alarmingly young ages. And the number of overuse injuries in young players are scary. But I’ll save you the lecture on how being a multi-sport athlete will help you be a better player and will prevent injuries in the long-term. I’ll focus instead on the emotional side of the equation. To be the best player you can be you have to miss it. You need to take some time off from playing in games and tournaments. You simply can’t sustain the level of focus and intensity you need to play your best every day. I’m not saying you should sit on the couch and eat chips all summer. And I’m also not saying that you shouldn’t skate at all. In fact, I truly believe players benefit greatly from doing one or two ice sessions per week throughout the summer that are focused entirely on pure skill development. But real champions are great athletes. Depending on your age, that may mean spending some serious time this summer training off the ice. Maybe with weights, maybe with just your bodyweight. It might just mean playing another sport at a high level or just spending lots of time playing a lot of different sports. The bottom line is when training camp comes around, you should be so excited about getting back on the ice that it keeps you up at night and gets your heart racing. You definitely shouldn’t feel like it’s just another day at the rink. I still feel that excitement when training camp rolls around for my team in late August. And I’ve been doing this for 20-plus years.
24 t
ical about it, but it’s made me a better athlete and a better coach. So try it. You only need to do it once or twice a week to feel a difference.
