Members might think I've been absent from this site for a short stretch. Well, that's only slightly true...
In reality, I've been working on two (or more) great new hockey drill options for CoachChic.com, but they're not about to show within these pages for a little while yet.
That said, let me quickly explain all this as best I can.

New Hockey Drill Options
Unbeknownst to most members, perhaps, I've been gradually building the first of those new hockey drill options over several months.
What I created -- almost a year ago -- was a "Facebook Group" that's geared exclusively towards "Hockey Drills Only". (I'll explain shortly why that group didn't become active until just this week.) Few people know it, but Facebook groups of this type often get infiltrated -- and ultimately hijacked -- by people with their own agendas.
Little wonder, then, that I've made that a "members only" group. Ya, if I recognize any of the usual suspects, they'll be quickly dismissed, while I'll have little patience for anyone else who doesn't contribute in a positive manner. If CoachChic.com members have any difficulties there, simple contact me for easy access or help.
Then, before going any further, let me enter a short, fun video I made to introduce the first of the new hockey drill options...

Hopefully, you found that both entertaining and informative.
Having already mentioned that page being stalled for close to a year, understand that my earliest hopes were to include a special kind of software that would allow every member to create drills rink diagrams. I had some great hockey people offer to help me with that, but the broadness of my aims really killed the idea.
On yet another not, members should notice that I've just recently acquired a number of a/v studio programs -- like the one demonstrated in that flick. More than anything, I hope these will new resources will benefit folks here in CoachChic.com.
As for the new hockey drill options group -- over on Facebook, here's how I see it helping you...
Once things get rolling there, I see it bringing us a great many ideas and questions that should find their way into CoachChic.com. And, while I promise to do justice to any questions coming from my Facebook friends, this CoachChic.com website allows me to go into far greater detail, and with far more resources.
Truly, I want CoachChic.com members to get involved over there in Facebook. Ask all the questions y0u want, help others if you choose, and see how things grow to ultimately help this site.
Oh, and most especially, add your comments or advice down below to help this old hockey coach to develop that group even better.

PS: I feel the need to keep the other (possibly two) new hockey drill options under wraps right now. I just don't like announcing anything I'm not absolutely sure about. Members can be sure, though, that at least one of those will come to fruition very soon, and that will especially benefit my coaching friends.
