Welcome to the first Curry College Hockey Coaches’ Clinic. Each alumni presenter spoke for around 15 minutes followed by open discussion with the group. Our participants ranged from current players, agents/advisors, scouts, and coaches from youth, Jr, college, and professional and coaches from other sports. We also had over 4 countries at the clinic adding to the diversity of thought.
