Chance Glasford ,

Very informational

The 6 part mini series about parenting in hockey was so helpful.

Excellent info

Love the podcast, just started listening recently after seeing a lot of the clips on social media. Really enjoying the content as a hockey parent, player and Dad assistant coach of a first year U14.

Excellent podcast and I’m a lacrosse coach..

This is an outstanding podcast. They share so many important details about the competitive world of club sports. Very honest with their assessments of what they think is meaningful worthwhile training / club teams/ etc. lots of stuff that people on the inside know but parents may not be familiar with. I run a lacrosse club, hold training clinics and coach and the messages and guidance transcend hockey. Keep up the great work.
