6 Week 3 Bucket Program

Devan McConnell-Head of hockey performance at the University of Massachusetts
We are running 3 different programs, based on "buckets" I've put players in from our sport science data, at the same time.
So, there is a "Rate of Force Development Emphasis" group, an "Eccentric Emphasis" group, and a "Force Emphasis" group.
Each program is similar, but with some small changes to focus slightly more in these areas for each group of players, but still allow us to train together as a team in an efficient manner. 
Abbreviations:
RFE- Rear Foot Elevated Split Squat
TBDL Jump- Trap Bar Deadlift Jump
NCM- Non Countermovement Jump
CMJ- Countermovement Jump

On-Ice Conditioning Plan

Joel Jackson-Strength and Conditioning Coach at Competitive Thread Athlete Testing and Development
I put together this on-ice conditioning plan for the coaching staff of both teams that I work with here at the University of Alberta.

What I was finding to be one of the main problems here was with the injured guys. For example we currently have a player that underwent surgery for a broken finger. He is obviously unable to take contact and do much skill work, but still is able to skate at a high intensity. What this turns into is him getting onto the ice for the tail end of practice and one of the coaches shit bagging him for 15 minutes. My purpose is to try and educate them on how important rest periods are for the intended purpose of the conditioning, whether it is with an injured guy or just general conditioning for the team. 

This will be a bit of a work in progress for me so I am sure I will add to, change things, etc over the coming month/years, but thought I would share it with you guys either way.
