Parent / Guardian _____________________________ Date: ____________________________ Coaching Philosophy At our goalie camp, the emphasis is on making saves properly. Many young goalies have early success but use incorrect techniques. As the competition improves, these techniques become habits and the goalie begins to fall behind and have less success. It is important to build good habits and strong skills into a youngster’s game. This will ensure that they continue to progress as they face stronger competition. The Fundamentals and Proper Technique 1. Skating and agility are crucial. If a goalie can’t move and recover efficiently, he or she will have a difficult time handling most game situations. 2. Keeping the shoulders down and “setting” for the shot is of great importance.

  • OATA President, Drew Laskoski, Trainer of the Year
    OATA President, Drew Laskoski, Trainer of the Year The Ontario Junior Hockey League today announced that Drew Laskoski of the Newmarket Hurricanes has been named the 2014-15 recipient of the OJHL Trainer-of-the-Year Award. The 52-year old Laskoski has spent the past 28 years plying his trade with York Region junior clubs, dating back to the 1985-86 season when he was the trainer for the Schomberg Cougars Junior 'C' club after graduating with a Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology from the University of Waterloo. With the Newmarket Flyers of the OPJHL taking a one year hiatus in 1986-87, they returned as the Junior 'B' Newmarket 87's in 1987-88 and with Laskoski as the club's Head Athletic Therapist, starting an on-and- off tenure with the franchise that sees him still in Newmarket today. 140 Allstate Parkway, Suite 302, Markham, Ontario, L3R 5Y8 t:905.946.8080 www.ontarioathletictherapists.org After spending two seasons with the 87's, Laskoski would attain his Diploma in Sports Injury Management from Sheridan College in 1990, while also spending a season as the University of Toronto Varsity Blues' Trainer in 1989-90. That summer, he would partner with Dr. Harvey Pasternak to establish Upper Canada Sports Medicine in Newmarket, Ontario, of which he remains co-owner today. Laskoski returned to the 87's fold in 1991-92 and would remain with the club for six seasons, through their transitional return to the OJHL Junior 'A' ranks and an OJHL/Dudley-Hewitt Cup Championship season in 1995-96 that included a trip to the first-ever Royal Bank Cup that took place in Melfort, Saskatchewan.

  • To Whom This May Concern
    To whom this may concern, My name is Stefan von Engelbrechten and I am currently playing for the Stouffville Spirit Junior ‘A’ Hockey Club in the OJHL. My minor hockey coach, Phil Kestin, is hoping to advance himself to the next level of coaching and I believe my reference may help. Firstly, I would like to talk about my experience last year being a member of Phil Kestin’s Midget ‘AAA‘ Waxers team. Our team last year made it all the way to the OMHA Championships losing in double overtime. The results of our season were impressive but more important was how we got there. Coach Kestin took a group of guys who have never played together and taught them to work inside a system which benefited the team overall and not just individual talents. This helped us achieve a 60+ win season in which we held first place in our division by a wide margin. Starting in pre season camp many of us, who had played elite level minor hockey before, noticed something different about this team. There was a professionalism amongst the coaching staff and an intensity in training and practices that made us feel like this was another level of hockey altogether. Our team had strict schedules to keep on and off ice, weekly one-on-one video instruction and weekly off-ice conditioning training. Our team experienced a lot of success but despite this each week we would have a new set of goals and a new set of things to make us better. Coach Kestin didn’t want us becoming complacent leading up to the OMHA finals where he knew we would face elite teams.
