Brian Gillam
My mission is development.  My method is contemporary.

My name is Brian Gillam, and I founded Brian Gillam Hockey to provide professional, high quality development services to minor hockey players, teams, coaches and associations.  

Through my 35+ years of working in player and coach development with Hockey Canada and Hockey Eastern Ontario, high performance coaching and private player development I have built a thorough understanding of the development needs of stake holders at all levels of the game.

​​

My program designs and delivery methods are based on contemporary frameworks and approaches to skill acquisition & learning, and supported by research.  Using representative learning designs and a constraints led approach that keeps the player at the center of the learning process I am able to address all development needs of the player.  These contemporary approaches and frameworks also form the core of my coach and association programs.​

​

Let Brian Gillam Hockey support you in your development needs.
