Hockey Calgary Coach Night Series

 “Coaching is unlocking a person’s potential to maximize their own performance. It’s helping them to learn rather than teaching them” – Tim Gallwey

Hockey Calgary is proud to present the Hockey Calgary Coach Night Series brought to you by Score Hockey Range. The Series is aimed at bringing coaches together to learn some new skills, to share ideas, and to 'nerd out' with a group of passionate coaches. 

Idea sharing is an important part of coaching. The Hockey Calgary Coach Night Series is the beginning of an initiative to create a community network of coaches in the city of Calgary to facility idea and resource sharing and support. With the help and involvement of great coaches, we will improve our base and push each other to get better and in turn, improve the development and experience of children playing the great game of hockey.
