Whether it is introducing someone to the game for the first time, working with a club side or engaging with the performance environment across Great Britain, the coach is a critical factor
in determining the quality of a player’s experience. WHAT IS A GREAT HOCKEY COACH? Great hockey coaches can be defined by FOUR KEY CHARACTERISTICS SELF – Coaches who know themselves and why
they coach, striving to continually develop and improve PLAYER - Coaches who build effective and sustainable relationships, with and around the player, to support their wants and needs.
ENVIRONMENT - Coaches who are architects of environments that optimise learning, where players feel valued and actively participate in their own development. GAME - Coaches who develop their
knowledge and understanding of hockey appropriate to the participant need. For more information on these characteristics and how to effectively recruit and develop great coaches please
