U16/U18 OHL Draft

Having spent the last 15 years training minor hockey players, I've observed several consistent factors related to the OHL Draft. This includes the types of players selected and the skills they possess.

Typically, around 6-8 players from the London area are drafted each year within each age group. This leads to the question: how does a player become one of those selected?

From my perspective, the players who are consistently picked possess exceptional natural talent. For those who may not consider themselves the most naturally gifted, the key is in their ability to focus on the most impactful aspects of development. It's about following the right processes to achieve optimal results.

The players who tend to get drafted consistently display strong athleticism, exceptional on-ice intelligence, and a high level of competitiveness. These three attributes seem to be the strongest indicators of future success. So, how do we refine these skills?

In my experience, it's about a dedicated process of focusing on the right stuff that drive results. This involves fully committing to the right plan.

I believe that the way a player spends their time is the biggest factor. Understanding the right actions to maximize progress.

I'd be happy to schedule a 10-minute call to hear about your approach, and figure out how we can maximize your potential.
