Tom,

I love the drill of the day. The way you describe it in text plus include a .jpg (with more text) and usually a video example is EXCELLENT! I have used numerous drills in my skill academy and team teaching / mentoring sessions. This is an incredible resource – better than anything I have seen to date!!! AND IT'S FREE! Tell your coaching colleagues!

(People, please donate to Tom. Tom – what does it cost per month to host / maintain the site?)

Also, the articles make for interesting reading. The conversations are great. I enjoy reading people's questions and the subsequent answers. I just wish more people would chime in!

People, feel free to ask questions or post articles / opinions to get the dialogue moving. The more dialogue we can generate, the better. Nobody has all the answers, but combined, we can use our total hockey / coaching knowledge to try to make some suggestions based on experience. This site is an invaluable site for ongoing professional development and mentoring… on "your own time table!"

I know Tom feels like if he posts a reply to every post, or starts a topic, he is fearful people will only see his name as the last poster and not contribute. So please try to contribute more – regardless of whether Tom has posted! If he answers a question, please let us know how his advice worked out.

In closing,

Thanks to Tom for overseeing and contributing to it. (And financing it… DONATE PLEASE!)

Thanks to those posting questions, answers, articles and opinions! Keep it up!

PS Tom – CCSD will be mailing you a cheque for another ABC book I sold to a teacher. I submitted the invoice on your behalf today.
