but now you can...

Sharpen Your Management Abilities In As Little As 3 Hours with the SAME tools and features we used to Save Time, Improve Communication and Raise More Money...


Dear friend,

Until now…
There has not been any support for the most important administrative job off the ice - the Team Manager.
So we've spent a lot of time looking working on a solution that's easy to implement and use...

Coaches take their certification levels
Trainers take their courses
Parents are provided with resources

What about the TEAM MANAGER?

There is no course!
There is no support!
There are no guidelines!
There is no job description!

They are expected to…

      • Deal with people  (Communicate)
      • Manage the team funds  (Budgeting)
      • Arrange for a tournament  (Travel Management)
      • Raise money for the team  (Fundraising)

How Often Do You Find Yourself or Others Saying:      
 “I Wish I Had More Time”, “I Wish People Would Listen” or “I Wish We Had Extra Money” …during a season?

If you are like most people, you think becoming a team manager is pretty straight forward and simple.  A couple of hours here and there is no big deal out of your schedule.  Did you expect to be a part of …

Whose fault is it when meetings are boring? and How does a hotel handle groups at check-in? and Where is the money? and How is the team going to raise money this year?

Is there help for the Team Manager?

YES, Here's A Quick Way for YOU To Sharpen Your Management Abilities in 3 Hours

“It was like spending 5 years in advanced courses with a Fortune 500 company rolled into a 4 hour course targeted at minor hockey.  How refreshing to experience this high level thinking brought down to the level of the everyday person volunteering their time for the good of the game.  Outstanding!  Best and most appropriate hockey course ever!”

Alan Mackenzie, Coach


With a combined 50 years of management
experience and expertise…

*** The missing links...***
"How providing support to a team manager can translate into saving money, better communication and worry-free travel..."

Of course, if you're smart, right now you're probably wondering, "How does providing support to a team manager translate into saving money, better communication and worry-free travel for parents, players and coaches?"

That's a great question.

“The valuable, time-saving tools, strategies and complete manual will alleviate stress enabling me to better enjoy my role as manager...

…This is a MUST for all managers!!”

Stacey Lambert, Manager

Traditional teaching to team managers has been about the Associations’ "rules" and "processes" -- strategies that simply are NOT sufficient for the practical, day-to-day tasks of the average team manager.

If you're like most team managers that *We* know, you're searching for that support!

We all agree that Team Managers need training in the 4 pillar areas.   If you calculate the cost of contracting 4 experts in these four areas - Communication, Budgeting, Fund Raising, Travel Planning, you will probably see that it involves 2-3 hours for each topic at a minimum of $100 per hour, which represents a potential cost of $800 to $1200.  AND that gets you training possibly from someone that has not assimilated the teaching to the minor hockey world.

… then the manager has to go back and still spend hours developing a tool to implement the training.

Our Team Management Training Program does all of this, PLUS provides the tool and support.

“Great seminar.  All the pertinent aspects of management presented in an easy to digest manner.  A highly recommended course for any aspiring new or seasoned manager”

Albert Wong, Manager

So you can't afford to waste time... even if it's just 3 hours!

You need to see a measurable increase in knowledge... fundraising strategies... and communication abilities...

... And you need clear PROOF (i.e. money in the bank) that your time invested in attending a course and working the resource manual -- simply  -- is worthwhile!

Fortunately, the Team Management Training Program delivers all this.

We know from personal experience, that strategies like this have the potential to skyrocket your fundraising abilities 50% or more and save on travel expenses at least 10% --

Here is ONE MORE example of
Real People having Real Issues...

A team gets a last minute invitation to play a couple of games across the border.  They arrange for a bus and call a hotel for rooms.  They arrive at the border and find out they may not be allowed entry into the country.  The team’s association is contacted by customs officials and they are surprised.  They are denied access.  Kids are disappointed.  Adults are angry and frustrated.

…one week later a hotel calls looking for an unpaid  ‘no show’ bill of $1,700?

This Team Manager Training Program,
which is the first of its kind for team managers, eliminates all of this.

      • The 12 Steps to Successful Team Management!
      • How to Avoid the Pitfalls of Travel Management!
      • The Secrets to Powerful Meetings and Have Them Wanting More!

How?

  1. By raising the level of comfort for people in the role of Team Managers which will significantly reduce the amount of turnover of team managers, since their comfort level and confidence will be higher and they will enjoy the position better.
  2. Similarly to coaches, trainers and officials, the Team Manager Training Program gives Team Managers a support mechanism and the materials to make their jobs easier and save them time.  The whole program includes a course, a step-by-step system, a 1-hour support call with a team management expert and unlimited e-mail support during the season.
  3. By giving the association an added-value to teams.  We invite, in fact we encourage the coach to attend the training course in addition to the Team Manager enrolled.  Our intention is to improve a team’s success Off the Ice.

Given its potential to save you hours and hours every week, help you raise more money for the team and create clearer communication to players, parents, hotels, banks and the team’s staff, I'm sure you'd agree $1,900.... $2,500 or even $3,000 would be reasonable for a program like this...
