CoachThem at the NHLCA Global Coaches' Clinic: Takeaways, Connections, and Coach Shoutouts

On June 14th, CoachThem had the privilege of attending the 2025 NHLCA Global Coaches’ Clinic in Toronto, hosted by the NHL Coaches’ Association. Surrounded by some of the brightest minds in hockey, we left inspired, energized, and proud of the growing community of coaches who continue to push the game forward.

 



Key Takeaways

 

  • Coaches are hungry for efficiency. From junior levels to the pros, time-saving tools like digital drill creation and organized practice planning are in high demand.
  • Visual teaching matters. We heard over and over how important clear, visual instruction is and how CoachThem is making that possible.
  • Community is everything. There’s nothing better than seeing coaches from across the globe come together, share ideas, and learn from one another.
