Me and my partner Harris Brotman came up with an idea to coach the Radnor middle school hockey.  Talking to Dr. Swinehart she said we needed more .  My partner and I were thinking about ways we could  impact people by this project.  An idea we came up with was  to go over the games and TV videos for people.   Dr. Swinehart like this idea would be a tough one but it would work  something we would go over certain place face-offs.  Would post these videos  monthly  around three videos of month.  Now we are working on  our proposal.  Our proposal will contain what we have to do and what we will do we will present it in front of a board of teachers.  Like shark tank  without the investments.  The middle school’s first practice was first of October.  I worked with the goaltender on random stuff that he will work on in his next game. The hardest part about this project is creating and editing the videos. This will be very hard because I do not have any experience in this field. We also have a mentor for our project. Personally he is my father but he is also the head coach of radnor. He would be a good mentor because he would be the head of everything and if we missed a practice because of a conflict or we were sick he would be able to fill us in.

Week 5 :)

The past few weeks have been a little off because of Christmas break. We haven’t been able todo much but what we have got finished has been good. After getting in contact with our mentor we went to a few practices with him and he showed us some of techniques and skills to teach with the kids. With kids who need help with shooting gave us 4 good shooting drills. With kids who needed help with skating he gave us two good skating drills we could do with them. Kids who couldn’t stick handle he gave us good stickhandling methods and ways to critique their stickhandling techniques. All and all we are working up to running our own practice. Next week I will not be able to make practice because of a conflict with the game that I have but I will still be able to keep in touch with the coaches and make sure everything will be running smoothly. Also Harris Brotman and I Will be choosing two or three kids to follow and track their progress. With these two were three kids we can see how her coachin...

Week 6 out here

The past few weeks have been busy with the team. We have won a few games and lost some. Most important has happened has been the All-Star game. This is where select group of kids from all of the teams get to compete in one game on 2 Teams. It was a fun experience for the kids who made it. In addition excuse kids extra motivation to practice so one day they can make it to the team. Other things that happened in class was our mid year review. We realized we did not change much from her start to our finish product. In addition we have come in contact with on mentor and he has helped us plan practice. Secondly we created a video of a drill and demonstrated it for the class. The class was very enthusiastic about video. The class seeing the kids on the ice for the first time was very cool for me and my partner Harris to see. Lastly we are starting our research paper. This consists of a written bibliography. In the weeks to come we will be coming up on our last middle school practice which Ha...

The past few weeks have been hard. First of all we got our blog approved and needed to start working on the next steps. The next few steps we’ve come up with are doing research on how kids learn and actually getting on the ice with the kids and start practicing. Many of the kids barely know how to skate but some are already at a relatively advanced level. Finding out how these two groups of kids learn and each making them better as individuals and as a team can benefit the game. Secondly we also have found a mentor my father Jay Von czoernig. He would be a good mentor because he it was first of all my father and second for the head coach of the team. What we’ve done so far is had practice layouts drawn up and showed our mentor them for approval. We are working towards running our first on ice practice but for now we are just helping out. Our practices consist of power skating a System of drills helping kids get better at skating, And shooting the puck. Lastly thought of ideas to do a s...
