The 2026 Skate Ontario Coaching Conference focuses on Back to Basics – recentering coaching around the core fundamentals of sport and how they apply to skating. The weekend emphasizes athlete-centred coaching, technical and tactical refinement, mental performance, team dynamics, and learning through play. Coaches will also benefit from intentional networking and community building opportunities, with a spotlight on the exceptional facilitators leading each session.

This conference is open to all Ontario coaches at the NCCP Regional In Training level and higher, and all participants must be In Good Standing. PD Points will be awarded for each day attended.
