Shiv’s coaching style focuses on all aspects of the game from the development of basic skills to the development of the player’s total understanding of the game. Not only did Shiv help our team – Qualify for the 2002 Perth WC – as a whole, he has also, over the years, provided me with individual attention to develop my personal play.

Meeting early in the mornings before going to work, Shiv would take time out of his busy schedule to meet a small group of hockey players to work on technical and tactical skills. Technically I was able to focus on improving tackling and hitting, while tactically utilizing the group setting I was able to work on making quick decisions under pressure. The practices were very precise and goal oriented. Shiv provided limitless feedback that was structured, yet progressive.

For example, Shiv is able to remedy technique like footwork and grip, while continually giving feedback that builds on itself at a pace that pushes your game to new levels. Shiv has such a complete understanding of the game he can coach any level from kids who are stepping onto a pitch for the first time to World class players.

Shiv occasionally worked with our National team athletes as well. His ability to provide a different and new concept to our highest level players was extremely well received. The players looked forward to Shiv’s training’s, and were able to learn more with each individual session. Shiv enjoyed demonstrating many skills, so for those athletes who were more visual, his coaching style was a bonus.

Between 1984 and 1990, the nucleus of the Canada’s two Olympic, two world cups, and two Gold Medal Pan American Teams were developed under Shiv’s tutelage. He is able to break the total game down into its fundamental skills. Whether it be shooting on goal or making a tackle at the edge of the circle. Shiv has the ability to make the game simple. I have enjoyed Shiv’s coaching.

HOW SHIV CAN HELP YOU

Coach Shiv educates coaches, players and teams, of all ages and levels, to improve upon their performance. His unique strength is in, working with players individually or in mini-groups, and helping them reach their true potential while specializing them, in their playing positions.

Coach Shiv does this by breaking down the complex game concepts and principles of plays into simple small parts systematically. This way the players can understand them clearly and make them part of their skills repertoire, to take their game to the next level. As they now also know, what, when, where, how, and why’s of the skill and concept. Whatever, your performance goals are, whether the grassroots or elite level, Coach shiv can help you achieve them.
