The Los Alamitos high school coaching staff’s main goal is to create and develop a successful High School hockey program by implementing a team-first attitude. Build a fun, competitive, disciplined, learning environment for all players to excel. Teach to compete!!
To accomplish this we need to have the coaches and players all willing to pursue the common goal of the team. Our goal should be to teach, develop and motivate our players to become leaders and good teammates. We must emphasize to our players that team play will take us further than individual/selfish play. Encourage the experienced players to help the less experienced players. This can be accomplished by a team system and plays that involve a group effort. This can be done by simply communicating a play or passing the puck to your teammate. Our next goal will be to create a practice environment that challenges the players and pushes our less experience players to improve. Repeat, repeat, and repeat some more. Repetition is key to learning.
