The Chiller Ice Rinks are proud to announce the creation of our Specialized Hockey Skills Program and its recently appointed Director, James Nash.

Initially the Specialized Hockey Skills Program will include the Skating Treadmill and RapidShot shooting cage at Chiller North. Additional program elements are being considered for future offerings depending on the needs of area players.

James has been coaching classes and private lessons at the Chillers since 2010. Many area players and families already know James as an instructor with the Jr. Jackets hockey classes.

James grew up in the Toronto suburb of Brampton, Ontario Canada, and played youth hockey with the Brampton Maroon’s (OMHA) and the Mississauga Rebels (MTHL). After the Rebels, he continued playing with the Mississauga Chargers of the Jr. A OHA hockey league. From there he played with the Humber College Hawks while pursuing a marketing degree. James recently finished his degree at the Ohio State University and is excited to now focus on hockey full time.

“I love the game and have been around it my whole life. I’m looking forward to using my experience and training to develop local players of all skill levels,” James said. “By breaking down the skill sets and focusing on the basics, I know we can really help them improve.”

With the recent acquisition of the Skating Treadmill, Chiller Hockey Director Rob Schriner wants to build a one of a kind, specialty training program. He feels there is a need and demand for additional skills training as youth and amateur hockey continues to grow in central Ohio.

“At Chiller North we have the tools in place to create a first-class training center. Now we have the right person in James to help launch this program,” he said. “He is a knowledgeable coach and his students really respond to his patient, detailed approach. I can’t wait to see where he takes the program!”

The Chiller will be offering package details and registration on theChiller.com in the coming weeks. In the meantime if you have interest in the Specialized Hockey Skills Program please contact James at jnash@thechiller.com
