Kevin Neeld — Hockey Training, Sports Performance, & Sports Science

FINALLY, A D1 Hockey Coach Speaks Out!

My high school english teachers would hate me for this, but the current state of youth hockey can only be characterized by one word: ridiculousness.  Hockey has a higher burnout rate than any other sport.  The parents are the most crazed. Even worse, many times the coaches have the shortest tempers and very little actual teaching ability.  Not a good situation if you’re looking for a healthy indulgence in the greatest game on earth.  

Mike Boyle brought this to the public eye.  Brian St. Pierre stressed its importance.  

If you’re in the hockey world at all, you need to watch this.
