Coaches Corner

Please stop in here to find any and all information pertaining to coaching youth hockey through the CCHA. On this page, you will find information regarding what you need in order to become a coach, re-certify as a coach and level of certification you will need to coach certain levels. In addition to that, we will be uploading drills specific to the level you will be coaching along with blank practice plans to help you design your practices for your team.

If there is anything you would like added to the Coaches Corner please let us know and we will look into adding it. If you have any additional questions or need assistance with drills or practice plans feel free to contact the Hockey Development Committee.

Please check back often as we will be constantly adding beneficial information to help you be the best coach you can be. See you at the rink.

When it comes to fostering a youth athlete’s love for hockey, there may be no one more influential than his or her coach. Coaches can impact how players feel about the game of hockey every time they step on the ice. Whether it is helping players develop their skills or teaching life lessons, coaches leave a lasting impression on today's young players.

Thank you to our sponsors, Merrill Lynch (Marc Terris) and Acrylic Design, for sponsoring this event!  

We look forward to seeing all our coaches on March 16th!
