PRESENTING THE WORLD'S TOP SKILLS COACHES
The Coaches Site's Global Skills Showcase honours the hockey coaches who continue to evolve and push the skill level in our game forward.
Skating savants, goalie gurus, sniper specialists and everyone in between. We want to hear your unique perspective on how to best develop the next generation of players.
The top coaches will be selected and highlighted beside the leaders in the sport, as we lead up to the Global Skills Showcase in March, 2024.
The GSS was a process I cherished from start to finish. Being put in a situation to really break down and analyze a certain skill and back into the movements and the application challenges us as coaches in a really exciting way.
Justin Selman - Founder, Topline Hockey
Because of my participation in the GSS, I have been able to connect with coaches all over the globe and it has also helped me expand my business into new areas. I can't say enough good things about my experience as a presenter.
Brian Slugocki - Founder, Slugocki Hockey
From start to finish it was a highly engaging process that helped me develop, refine, and package a “portable training session” that reflected my coaching method and approach. Thank you, TCS for the incredible career opportunity.
