At CoachThem, we are proud to continue our collaboration with the NHL Coaches’ Association (NHLCA) in supporting two transformative initiatives: the NHLCA Female Coaches Program and the NHLCA BIPOC Coaches Program. These programs are making a profound impact on the hockey coaching landscape, fostering diversity, mentorship, and opportunity.
In professional sports, fostering an environment that embraces a variety of perspectives isn’t just beneficial—it’s essential for growth and innovation.
The NHLCA Female Coaches Program continues to drive change by empowering women in hockey. Through mentorship, training, and professional development opportunities, this initiative is breaking down barriers, equipping female coaches with the tools they need to succeed, and paving the way for a more inclusive coaching community. By providing invaluable support and resources, the program reinforces the message that coaching excellence transcends gender.
Similarly, the NHLCA BIPOC Coaches Program remains a significant step toward ensuring representation in hockey. By championing the talents and perspectives of Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour within the coaching ranks, this initiative provides essential mentorship, education, and networking opportunities that enable BIPOC coaches to thrive. The program’s ongoing success enriches the hockey world by fostering a diverse and dynamic coaching community.
As part of our commitment to these initiatives, CoachThem proudly provides a complimentary annual subscription to coaches affiliated with the NHLCA Female and BIPOC Coaches Programs. We believe that by offering access to innovative coaching tools, we can contribute to the development and success of these talented individuals, reinforcing our shared dedication to excellence in hockey coaching.
