All Torhs Team 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2006 I play on 3 teams, but I choose 1 coach that goes far beyond the others.He coaches our Varsity High school team.He came in and pretty much picked up our program and saved us from not having hockey any longer. Besides that he lives an hour away from where we all live. so he drives an hour there and back every night for us to practice and game. then of course you know us high school kids, sometimes we dont feel like skating and we half-ass it.Besides that he defidently knows what hes talking about, and hes still pretty young so he has a way of talking to the high school guys like an older guy wouldnt.He is also really liked by all the parents and players and had played high school hockey when he was a kid. so he is pretty much liked by everybody.I dont know if ths wins the award, but does anyone else have a coach that goes out of the way to coach you guys?

LetsGoWings13 0 Report post Posted September 3, 2006 My last ice coach was the best I have ever had. He made me the player I am today I used to be a foreward who never touched the ice now im starting on defence and im a key player. He taught me so many things and never got pissed at us over dumb things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've never played hockey with a coach, but I like to look on the bright side of things. That's a good approach to everything. Got the news the other night, that we got the same coach, coaching us again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dougie8 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2006 well next time he throws a puck at you, shoot it back at him :D That was my exact plan. I am heading into this season saying to myself.
