Hear what the hockey development world has to say about Kevin…
“I was really happy to learn that one of my players was training with Kevin at Endeavor. Kevin is a great young coach who really absorbs info and puts it to use.”

Michael Boyle Strength and Conditioning
“As a strength and conditioning coach I am constantly reading and talking to other strength coaches, trying to increase my knowledge to better serve my athletes. This process takes you through countless books, websites and coaches. After a while you start to narrow it down to a small group and they become your main resources for exercises and information. Kevin Neeld and KevinNeeld.com without a doubt make my short list. Kevin is one of the finest and most knowledgeable Hockey Strength Coaches in the country and his website is a wealth of information explaining cutting edge exercises and techniques for developing elite hockey players. Kevin is constantly refining his skills and creating innovative and highly effective ways of getting the most out his athletes.
In the off-season my athletes scatter and train with various strength coaches wherever they are spending the summer. If any of my athletes train with Kevin at Endeavor Sports Performance in the off-season I know I don’t have to worry about them. I can count on them coming to training camp strong, balanced and ready for the rigors of a long season. I highly recommend Kevin as a strength and conditioning coach for any elite or pro hockey player and I think any strength coach who is looking for a reliable resource should add KevinNeeld.com to their list of favorites on the computer.”

Kim McCullough, MSc, YCS

“I believe it is Kevin’s passion for hockey that makes him one of my favorite guys to talk with about training hockey players. Kevin is not one of those “this is how I did it when I was a player, so you should too” kind of strength and conditioning coaches. Kevin evaluates the demands of the sport, looks at ways to take effective exercises and modify them to suit the demands of hockey, or implement them directly into his training programs. Kevin is much more than a trainer who happens to work with hockey players, he is a true hockey strength and conditioning coach and I am happy to have him as a colleague in the industry.”
