Body Contact Training Coming For Hockey Coaches

Expect more changes at Hockey Northwestern Ontario.
The changes are the result of a new Hockey Canada ruling eliminating body checking from Peewee hockey.
HNO General Manager Trevor Hosanna says part of the new rule is mandatory body contact training for minor hockey league coaches.
Hosanna is supporting the new rule and notes HNO hopes to implement the training shortly.
He stresses there needs to be more education on body contact skills.
Hosanna hopes to have all coaches trained in time for the new hockey season.
