Our Approach

We train you to be YOU. We listen, learn about your league and team and we provide options and tools for you to use. We deconstruct, suggest ideas, ask questions and build individual plans for each coaching gig.

Costs: We coach to help grow the level of the sport and to help fund our skaters and volunteers to attend games and tournaments. All coaching income goes directly to our teams, officials and volunteers.

Suggested Fee’s:
1. We ask that you cover our travel costs and put us up if overnight if required

2. Suggested coaching fee structures:

— 2 hours of coaching + 1 hour workshop with your coaching committee - £100
— 1 hour of coaching + 1 hour off skates seminar - £80
— 1 game footage review report & 3 hours of coaching £120

Just get in touch and let us know what you need, and we’ll put a price package together that suits you. Email: [email protected].

Testimonials!

We’ve been busy over the last 10 years, coaching out and about as well as running our own home boot camps and here are some of the nice things that people have said about our coaching…

“I finally made the Soak bootcamp, and it was soooo much fun! It made me remember why I fell in love with this sport”

“Excellent drills, both on track and off skates. Got plenty of new ideas how work techniques, re-setting and recycling. Enjoyed every minute of the lectures on benching, stats, bout analysing and team construction.”

“The best lesson to learn was to never give up and even when you think your body is screaming for a break you can always go a little bit longer. Needless to say the ARRG coaches were extremely nice and super encouraging.”
