Members, Coach Chat, News Simon Letchford, basic skills, grip

Simon Letchford - pic by Marc Lequint Simon Letchford has been around... This experienced coach talks to us in our Coach Chat at 2018-04-20 about "Get a grip!" Basic skills are extremely important obviously. Still coaches struggle teaching the grip, both to beginner as well as experienced players. Changing the grip from receiving, carrying to passing and how to train this will be his topic of choice for our Coach Chat. So maybe you joined us live in this Coach Chat at Friday 2018-04-20 at 12:30h (CET)... or when you were too late for this party ? watch the video (you need to be logged in to see the video) with a full replay.

The English coach worked previously at Hockey England and Reading HC in the UK, before joining Belgian hockey in 2012. In Belgium he coached Wellington and Racing Club de Bruxelles and recently moved on full time to the Belgian federation where he is assistant to the Belgian women and head coach for their U21 women's team.

Coach Calendar

News calendar

If you're anything like us, you enjoy every high performance hockey game, no matter who is playing. So we struggle getting all these games into our calendar and struggle finding the live stream or replay on the net. Sorry to say we can't help you with that last one. Finding the live streams has always been a pain the ass and with old fashioned broadcasting rights per country still a source for income, this is not likely to change.

But we can and will help you with getting all games and important hockey events into your calendar 🙂

We will not go as far as getting all national leagues in there but focus on the major international events. You'll find the recently released World Cup schedules in there and we'll add and update the HPL and other relevant events ASAP as well... If you visit our calendar page you'll also see the links to a public Google calendar you could add to your own in full or just the games you want. Or you can get the Ical file to import the calendar into yours. Or subscribe your calendar solution to this ical link : https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/rhlec25f46c84v6mvccvtg8i1s%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

We thank Jon Bray from World Hockey News to maintain and update the calendar for you... because you know... #sharetheknowledge 😉

thehockeysite.com is all about our hashtag "share the knowledge". We want to provide hockey coaches all over the world and from all levels (if you're ambitious and eager to learn) a platform to learn from the best and to share our knowhow among each other. So.... Join us !

We will offer 4 services:

Coach Conference
Coach Chat
Coach Courses
Coach Catalog

The Coach Conference will offer high profile keynote speakers and several workshops. What sets us apart is we will do this 100% online so coaches from all over the world will be able to attend without travel.
Coach Chat is where we will meet up online with renowned coaches from all over the world for a casual chat about their take on coaching plus a Q&A fuelled by your questions. A video chat with top coaches based upon your input & needs...
Coach Courses will be offered for online study of all elements in the coaching profession. Courses you can enrol from wherever you are, whenever you want and where you study at your own pace.
Last but not least we will host a Coach Catalog. An online library of drills, exercises and coaching knowhow ready to use in your daily coaching & training or for inspiration. A shared catalog filled with relevant knowledge, drills and coaching stuff. Our Coach Catalog will always be free for all. We believe all should have free access to these basic components of hockey training and we ask coaches from all over the world to share their drills and exercises with us... #sharetheknowledge !

All of our services will be 100% online and therefore complementary to all regular "off line" courses by federations and local commercial academies. We're endorsed by the FIH Academy... and seek to cooperate with national and continental federations as well as with commercial partners to bring you quality content.
