Reviews

Coaches are constantly in search of ways to replicate game conditions. Limiting time and space enhances skill development and has a positive influence on decision making. The purposeful small-area games in Coaching Hockey With Small-Area Games are motivating and beneficial, and they ensure all players are never far from the action. -Paul Carson, President of the Coaching Association of Canada I have always felt that every coach should have a bank of small-area games to use for player development at all levels. With Coaching Hockey With Small-Area Games, one of Canada's top coaches, Dave Cameron, has put together a resource to keep practices fun, competitive, and educational. -Mike Johnston Sr., Vice President, General Manager, and Head Coach of Portland Winterhawks Hockey Club

Author Information

Dave Cameron is the head coach and program director of Jets Hockey Development, a skating and skills coach for Manitoba Moose, and a development coach for Team Canada U17. Also a Hockey Canada skills consultant, he has more than 20 years of experience coaching players of all levels: professionals (NHL, AHL, and ECHL), college athletes, and young athletes just learning to play the game. He has helped many players achieve their goals, including being selected in the WHL Bantam Draft, making the jump to the NCAA, being selected in the NHL Entry Draft, and winning the Stanley Cup. Cameron specializes in individual skill development such as power skating, shooting, stickhandling, passing, and position-specific skills. He believes that confidence is built from practice and players can continue to get better through detailed work in specific areas. Cameron played minor hockey in the Winnipeg area before moving on to the WHL, where he was drafted by the Pittsburgh Penguins in 1998 (third round, 80th overall). He returned to Winnipeg to attend the University of Manitoba, where he obtained a degree in kinesiology before starting his coaching career.
