“Tim’s scientific approach to teaching players how to shoot goes far beyond what a coach at any level has the time or knowledge to do. This includes players from Novice thru Pro. I have seen 1st hand how amazed pros are at what Tim has to offer. Any player who wants to score more goals needs to spend time with Tim. You will be amazed at what you didn’t know about the art of shooting!”
-Trevor Timmins – Assistant Director of Scouting for Columbus Blue Jackets
“I have had the opportunity to witness the quality of Tim Turk’s work as a shooting instructor. I have relied on Tim to work with players during summer development camps at the professional level as well as in-season with American Hockey League Players. Tim has impressed me with his ability to work with players with various levels of shooting aptitude and with his ability to work on a wide variety of shots. I have often recommended him in the past and would not hesitate to recommend him in the future to anyone looking for a top-level shooting instructor.” – Julien BriseBois – General Manager, Tampa Bay Lightning
What Tim Turk Teaches
PUCK SKILLS – Tim Turk offers a technique- driven approach in the art of hockey shooting, scoring, passing and puck control. Players learn tips and strategies to help maintain better puck possession, and to release it with more power and accuracy.
GAME KNOWLEDGE – With Hockey….Knowledge is Power! know what, know how, know when! Proper hockey development not only includes learning skills, but also improving your knowledge. The smallest change can often make the biggest improvement!
TOTAL CONFIDENCE – Being prepared physically & mentally are crucial to success! Tim’s hockey development system follows a progressive training method, which allows players to implement what they’ve learned with confidence.
“In hockey, every day and every player is unique, much like a finger print. We all learn differently. As a teacher and development coach, I don’t believe there should be a set curriculum when teaching individual skills. My goal is for the player to reach the same optimal result. All athletes perceive things differently and have various paths of understanding. I take all these multiple styles of learning into account, customize my delivery for what works best with each individual athlete. As a result, this gives any player the opportunity to register and feel immediate improvement, while comfortably progressing with a sense of success. I believe that teaching through observation combined with my style of delivery gives every player I work with the opportunity for endless possibilities and limitless growth.” – Tim Turk
