The Green Key - My Style

​

You must write a paragraph and submit it to me or Chris about your definition of your playing style.  Do you find yourself to be a goal scorer?  A play maker?  A defensive specialist?  A defensive defenseman, Offensive?  Think about it.  Write it down.

​

In writing your thoughts, you will try to define what kind of player you are... or what kind of player you would like to be and why.  Writing these thoughts down will help you to think about how your game has developped, and it will help me and Chris develop that style on the ice in situational events.  We will be able to help you focus your choices in coinciding with the type of player you want to be.  When something happens in game-play, we will be able to give you options that you better suit your style.  

​

Example:

​

Green Key player says:

"Should I have passed in that situation?"

​

Ian knows his style choice as a goal scorer... so he would say

"Probably not... you were in the slot.  Fire it"

​

Then Ian would say something clever like:

"100% of the shots not taken, aren't going in"

​

Player would swoon... because Ian's comments resonate with what Green-Key player is trying to do with their game... and then goes off happy.
