I was invited to be do a hockey camp for the HC Dukla organization in Jihlave, Czech Republic. It was a great experience and a challenge to my teaching skills as only one coach, ex NHL Maple Leaf Petr Svoboda spoke english. I would meet with Petr before practice and go over everything I planned. We would then meet with the other coaches to do the same and then go on the ice. There were about 30 players from 7 to 14. We put them into a younger and older group and then divided these groups into two more groups. There were a lot of goalies so we used 4 nets and divided the ice into quarters and also cross ice into 4 groups with one coach each for the skills practice. It was a great experience and they offered me a job to be coach mentor and help Petr with the U20 team.
