COACH SEMINAR SERIES
Throughout each season, the Markham Waxer Hockey Development Program hosts a series of Coaching Seminars for all our MMHA House League and Waxers Coaches to attend. Each seminar allows our coaches and their staff an opportunity to learn from a professional coach/individual that is involved in the game of hockey. Each of our seminars are endorsed by the OMHA allowing attendees to earn professional development points towards the renewal of their coaching certification.
