I started posting practice ideas while coaching college women in 2003 and have continued to now. Calgary is where Hockey Canada is and many international teams practice here. We have college and university teams, major and Provincial Jr. teams and a huge minor hockey system. I have coached at all three post secondary institutions. U of Calgary, 8 years, Mount Royal 5 years, SAIT starting my sixth season and one season with the Red Bulls in Austria. I have also coached in the school system, minor hockey from 5-18 year old's, done hockey camps on three continents and seven countries, etc., etc. So anyway lots of hockey practice ideas from all of these sources.
The goal of all of this is to help coaches run effective and enjoyable practices no matter what level they are coaching.
There are close to 2000 ideas from around the world on the site.
