The Hockey Show - Episode Twenty-Seven

The Hockey Show has featured a number of people from many different walks of life in the world of hockey, and today's show will continue that trend as we feature a man who could almost be responsible for the major turnaround done by Hockey USA. I wrote about the IntelliGym program on March 3, and I wanted to do some more digging as to how the program works, how it makes players better, and where it goes from where it is now. To do so, I needed to speak with someone who knows everything there is to know about IntelliGym, so The Hockey Show is proud to welcome Jacob Mars to the program tonight!

Jacob Mars is a Level-5 certified coach, and he works with USA Hockey as the IntelliGym expert on staff. Basically, he knows just about everything when it comes to this program, so he's probably a pretty good guy to speak with when it comes to learning more about how IntelliGym has led USA Hockey back to the spotlight. Mr. Mars was one of the first people to test the program while attending Hebrew University in Jerusalem, and has since become the leading authority on all things Hockey IntelliGym. We'll talk to him about his passion for coaching, his hockey endeavors, and, of course, IntelliGym and its impact on Hockey USA's development program and national teams!

Tune in at 6PM on 101.5 UMFM to hear all about the IntelliGym program and how its incorporation into Hockey USA's training has led to major success on the international stage. Mr. Mars will be chatting all about how IntelliGym evolved from a fighter pilot training program into one of the best "brain training" programs on the market today!

Until next time, keep your sticks on the ice!
