Episode 6 - Colin Shields 9/6/2020
For all UK ice hockey fans, this is a treat!
In this episode I talk to Colin Shields, a member of the Great Britain ice hockey team who won promotion to the top tier of IIHF ice hockey last year and current all-time top point scorer in the EIHL with 338 points.
We talk about his start in hockey, how he used Strength & Conditioning to help him stay at the top of his game for his entire career and what it was like to beat France in overtime to secure promotion to the top tier in world ice hockey.
We discuss his background in S&C and how he continued that passion while he was playing and now he has retired, and what his thoughts are on the development of ice hockey in UK going forward.
Another episode you should really listen to!
