In this episode, I’m joined by Dennis Vollebregt, head coach of the Dutch U18 national ice hockey team, for a cross-border conversation on youth performance in elite hockey. We explore how Germany and the Netherlands each approach athlete development, performance culture, testing and monitoring, and the transition from youth to senior levels.
While we don’t get into specific programming details, we dig into the philosophies behind our systems, the challenges we face, and what we can learn from each other’s national setups.
