SO... you want to be a professional?...
Life as a professional hockey player with SCHC
Hi Guys,
Having been in Holland training and playing with SCHC for the past month I thought now it would be a good time to give a summary of what has been going on so far.
I arrived on the 1st of September following a great tournament in Paris with the national team not knowing what quite to expect from my move to Utrecht.
My very first impressions...

Footwork exercises range from very basic to very challenging. But let it be known that what ever standard of a goalkeeper, even the goalkeepers at the highest level are in need of concrete basics and still train these basic...
Baseline Defence...
Baseline Defence
This is a very important area of the D for a goalkeeper to handle and understand!
There are 2 types of baseline attacks that can occur: 1. Static and 2. Dynamic entry.
A static entry is one where there are numerous defenders and attackers in the D. The goalkeeper here works closely with the Sweeper or whichever free defender there is to create either a double tackle or the...

Kit Review: Right Hand Protector
The infamous Right Hand Protector (RHP) from Tk. The glove some say OBO chose to model their new RHP on…..
It’s unconventional shape is what makes this glove so special and at the same time deter some keepers away from using it as it’s not ‘the standard shape’ of a RHP.
I believe it offers a lot more than the normal RHP. Its larger shape is of massive benefit to the goal keeper from reflex saves...
