U16 A White - Matthew Palladina
Matt is excited to be coaching U16 A
White. This upcoming season will mark his 8th season coaching within the Milton
Winterhawks association.
His
goal for every season of hockey is to build a competitive hockey team with
players who are determined. Matt's seasonal plan emphasizes skill development
through repetition. He aims to inspire a love for hockey in every team he
coaches, and seeing players progress is very rewarding.
Each
of his practices cover conditioning, skill development, and full-ice awareness,
the three key areas for strong team development. His process starts with
setting specific tryout criteria, then selecting bench and on-ice staff
suitable for the roles needed to execute the plan. Regardless of the season
outcome, he always wants to be building a love for hockey.
