Make 2017 YOUR Year!

January 1, 2017 4:02 pm Published by

Who doesn’t love the fresh start feeling that the New Year brings! Encourage your athlete to set goals this year. Through our curriculum we advise our young athletes to set 3 types of goals:

  1. Development Goal
  • This should be something very easily attainable in practice or training times. Improved focus in practice. Improved diet. Isolating a deficient skill and working towards improving it.
  1. Game Goal
  • This should be ever changing. Start small; working hard for an entire game, being a good teammate, x-number of shots on net, winning 1 on 1 battles. From there, once the confidence and in-game production grows these goals can become more detailed and lofty!
  1. Academic Goal
  • Without the grades, hockey achievements are nothing. No different than our hockey skills, encourage your student-athlete to sharpen their academic toolbox and strive to be better every day!

Make 2017 your year; one shift at a time!
