Further Info
-
After receiving numerous requests, this program has been developed as the online-only equivalent of our Emerging Talent Program, providing access to those who cannot attend in-person days in England, due to geographical restrictions.
-
Our program is aimed at aspiring performance players. By this we mean, players who are committed and hungry to improve, and wish to be challenged and supported with a world-class learning environment.
Due to the online-only nature of the program, it is not limited by age or gender and is open to all.
The program is open to outfielders and goalkeepers.
-
The cost of participation is £49 per month, across 10 months (September to July).
-
We have capacity for 30 remote learners, with each application considered on its merits.
-
Entry is by application.
-
Online sessions will cover a number of topics, aimed at supporting holistic player development and with a sport psychology focus. Topics include:
Understanding yourself as a player
Approaches to training - how to maximise your development
How to thrive in selection environments, including trials
Managing pressure and stress
Dealing with feedback and setbacks
Developing confidence
US College applications (where applicable)
-
These will be recorded and uploaded to the Emerging Talent Program members-only website, so the sessions will be accessible to you at any time while you are on the program.
-
You will be joining our program to become part of a supportive community, led by your coaches.
Aside from our interactions at the online sessions, you can reach out to your coaches for additional support.
Each player will have access to your Head Coach for 15 minute telephone check-ins, based around the coach’s availability. These will be delivered either 1-1, 1-2 or 1-3.
Want to explore US College recruitment? We can advise you on this, connect you with the right groups, and get you into the best possible shape.
Want to start coaching younger players? We can help you with ideas and guidance.
Considering your next steps in terms of club / University hockey? We can offer you objective support and connect you with the right people to help you achieve your goals.
When joining our program, you get access to top coaches in your corner, to help you grow. Ultimately, your drive and determination will be responsible for your own success. However, we can give you all the tools and support to help set you on the right path.

We welcome goalkeepers onto the program. The development of mental strength, tactical understanding and physical aspects is vital to support GK development.
Timeline
Testimonials
Seb
ETP Player 2024-25
“The program has been outstanding: from the detailed strength and conditioning assessments and bespoke routines to the player and play analysis.
My daughter finds the mentoring calls really helpful. As a parent, the supportive online resilience mindset psychology webinars have been invaluable.
The program has demonstrated just how quickly and how far players can progress, when an expert coaching community supports them with helpful feedback, match and game-strategy insights.
We are so pleased our daughter made it onto the program.”
Wendy
ETP Parent 2024-25
“The main point of difference between EVO and others are the tactical / scenario based content you do. For a player to be enthused about that aspect of the game is really encouraging and shows how engaging you and the other coaches are with the players.
The addition of PT content and testing is also great, it motivates him to improve scores/times etc.”
