The idea and research done • Off-ice exercise guidebook for ice hockey junior coaches in D, E, F and G-juniors. • Theoretical background was researched on: • The physiological needs of a hockey player • Sensitivity periods to adjust the training according to age/skill level • The coaching methods to be able to create the product so that a parent is able to coach with it • The latest exercise material from FIHA and Juniori-KalPa to develop good exercises further • The current seasonal plans still have to be gone through and the actual exercise sessions seen to be able to develop them in the best possible way.
Commissioner: Juniori-KalPa • Juniori-KalPa is an individual organization working in cooperation with KalPa Hockey Oy that plays in the Finnish SM-League. • Juniori-KalPa was founded in 1989 and has approximately 730 juniors playing competitive hockey through G to A-juniors. • They are a Nuori-Suomi quality controlled club by the label of sinettiseura. • Tommi Rouvali, sensitivity coach is the contact person from Juniori-KalPa. • Kari Partanen is the teacher supervisor from the KUAS.
Why Juniori-KalPa offered this subject? • Juniori-KalPa lacks proper material according to the sensitivity period of a junior. • To support the product development process, the author will oversee the current off-ice exercises during the spring 2013 and will develop the ideas further.
Purpose and aims • Provide a guidebook for junior coaches as a reference for everyday planning and applying exercises. • Objective for the author is to learn how the sensitivity periods differ according to age and how to adjust the training to maximize the effect of each exercise. • Have a reference for future coaching and learn more of the strength and conditioning in the process. S&C coaching is an option for my working life in the future. • For Juniori-KalPa there is a need for a guidebook in everyday use. The exercises have to develop by age/skill level and be optimized to every environment possible (indoors Tuplajäät and Lippumäki+outdoors). Every exercise needs to develop the junior! • The KUAS can get the final product for future use.
Development tasks • Optimization of exercises meaning beginning from simple and developing further. • Develop instructions simple enough to understand for every adult. • Usage of existing or no equipment to save in costs. • Usage of the latest and most sport-oriented material with the knowledge of the sensitivity periods and what the current seasonal plans are.
Schedule • Most of the theoretical background research needed is done. • During practical training going through the seasonal plans and actual exercises to develop them further, talking with the coaches for ideas. • By the end of practical training the exercises are ready on paper. • Finalize the layout of the guidebook and insert the exercises during the summer. • Hand in the final product for Juniori-KalPa August 2013. • Finalize thesis report and return it in November.
Resources and marketing • The printing costs for the final product will be covered by the comissioner • Other costs are covered by the author • The product will not be marketed in any way and is planned for the use of Juniori-KalPa
Concluding • Goal is to educate through sport...
…. so the senior team would do well in the future too. Thank you!
