A report is read by people who were not at the rink. Write it so they can see what you saw: the time on the clock, the period, the player numbers, what each person did...
How it works
A real game situation, three or four choices, one right call, and why, with the rule number and page so you can check it in the book.
Drill RoomPositioning, talking to benches, reporting penalties, game reports, fitness. Practice advice from the desk, clearly labelled as advice, not rules.
The feedAfter each game, rate yourself on five skills and write what you would do differently. Private to your card. Watch the averages move.
