HEADLINES  | | | D1 Off Ice Player Development Program 
| |
We have had a wonderful first half of the hockey off ice strength and conditioning program and want to send a reminder that it is not too late to enroll to get back in gear for the upcoming hockey season.
The goal of this program is to work with these hockey players to reinforce the most effective and efficient movement patterns through weight training and speed, agility, and quickness drills in an environment where the distraction and competition can be controlled to best improve coordination, develop strength, and prevent avoidable injuries.
The program is composed of 3 training days per week and built upon a progressive curriculum that will continually challenge each athlete individually, regardless of their training experience, to improve athleticism while learning about overall nutrition, wellness, and proper mechanics.
As a coach I have had the privilege of instructing thousands of training hours with youth athletes. I have developed a true respect and appreciation for hockey players as they have proven to be some of the most committed, driven, and resilient athletes I have worked with. My experience coaching these athletes has allowed me to utilize a training structure that directly targets weakness while building upon their strengths.
As a complement to on-ice training over the summer this program will be an excellent means to develop these athletes in an effort to unlock their full potential. The work they put in over these coming months will in large part determine the success they experience deep into the season.
The remainder of the summer will run on a Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday night schedule from 7:30-8:45pm through the week of August 12th-15th. Every session will meet at D1 Raleigh, 6330 Mount Herman Road, Raleigh NC 27617.
We will take care of all enrollment costs and any further setup steps during the first session you attend. The attached flyer for the program highlights all the details, costs, times, dates, and contact information for the program.
Please call or text me at 704-771-3076 or email me at
with any questions or concerns that you may have. Also, please pass this along to any other players/teammates that may be interested in further training through the summer.
