Speed Training for Hockey by Kevin Neeld

The field of sport performance is rapidly evolving.

  • The importance of strength and conditioning is more widely recognized and appreciated than ever before.
  • There is more applied sports research being published than ever before.
  • There are more opportunities to work in the field than ever before.
This is an incredibly exciting time to work in sports performance.
  • But with this growth comes several challenges.
  • There is more opportunity, but significantly more responsibility.
  • More recognition, but significantly more pressure. More available information, but less clarity.

Strength and Conditioning Coaches aren’t just responsible for putting together a good training program. Now you’re expected to:

Understand movement assessments and how they relate to injury risk and sport performance
Design special programs to recondition athletes recovering from injury or surgery
Integrate technology to monitor workloads and recovery
Analyze data for meaningful insight, and design reports to effectively communicate with athletes, coaches, and management
Educate athletes on proper sleep habits and the consequences of suboptimal sleep
Make nutrition and supplementation recommendations to facilitate improved health, performance, and recovery
