An Important Message from Townshend Hockey Skating Systems

Townshend Hockey's Student Advisor Service

For a few decades now I've been approached by 100's of families to help guide their children through the myriad of options available to those who wish to pursue hockey opportunities at the collegiate level and beyond.

Over the past few years there has been an influx of family advisers entering the youth hockey realm and they offer variety of services.

I've been studying many of these advisory services and I found quite a few gaps in their menu of services that I feel we can do a much better job to fill.

I just got off the phone recently with a coach at the junior level to help one of our students decide on which team to play for and the family was definitely uncomfortable asking certain questions which I have no problem asking and I think that we found a very good spot for this young hockey player with College hockey aspirations.

Many of these advisory companies carry far too many clients and therefore are unable to give the personal attention that their clients deserve.

Our in season training program has been very successful and we've experienced incredible results.

We are going to extend the in season services offered to our students above and beyond what is being offered now and below you will find a list of the services we are going to offer.


7 Features

  1. Bi-monthly game film analysis in season (by Graeme and Kurt Townshend)
  2. Bi-monthly hockey IQ Zoom sessions in season (by D 1 and current pro coaches)
  3. Two (2) in-person visits from Graeme - This gives your child an unbiased and honest assessment of actual performance from a seasoned professional coach/scout.
    (1 visit for over 10hr drive from my home in Maine)
  4. Three (3) in-season progress evaluations by Townshend Hockey staff
  5. Call in season coaches for progress feedback
  6. Personally contact prospective teams for following season (We will get feedback on the coachs' view on where your child places on his/her depth chart)
  7. Placements (Assistance with youth teams, junior teams and college placements)

Many of the features mentioned above are not currently offered by family advisors, so we think we have put together a package that is far superior to what is currently available.

Please get in touch with us at TownshendHockey@yahoo.com for more info and for the link to register for this program.
