There is a reason Shift Hockey instructs our Sea to Sky Hockey Academies, quite simple, they are among the best instructors I’ve seen. I would like to think my 36 years of on ice instruction, hockey background as a professional player & high-performance coach has enabled me to recognize talent when I see it. The coaches there are among the best technical instructors I have seen. Their knowledge & attention to details has helped to produce some very skilled players and teams. Any players fortunate enough to step on the ice with them will benefit greatly from that experience. With RPM we only recruit the best.

All I can say is your players are in great hands when Shift Hockey is in charge of development in this great game of ours. They will focus on many important areas of the game, including a strong belief in that you must practice with diligence & effort in order to improve game performance.

Mike has been a positive influence on both of my sons. Mike has coached my sons for many years, helping them to get to the next level. He has a way of connecting with players that very few coaches, & they genuinely want to play and get better under his guidance. He has given an incredible amount of time and effort to all players from the Sea to Sky corridor as a coach and mentor. He understands how to get the most of them and cares about them. Thanks Mike!

The coaches at Shift Hockey are role models to my son. Their passion for hockey is amazing. They live & love hockey and are great coaches on & off the ice. Tommy has always had great experiences with them and their passion for the game is infectious. Tommy has improved so much under their guidance and programming. Merci Beaucoup!

Having Shift Hockey coaching in the corridor has now given both the communities & players the right tools to develop their skills on & off the ice. I have had the opportunity to work with them and they have helped me to continue to build my skill to continue to play at the highest level. They have a great ability to teach skills that actually translate on ice. This is why I think more and more players from the S2S are making the jump to AAA & Jr. levels. Thanks Tim & Mike for all your efforts both on & off the ice.
Training with Shift Hockey will get you results. Improve on-ice performance, decision-making, awareness, anticipation, and hockey IQ at our high-performance camps for all ages.
