we EQUIP HOCKEY PLAYERS WITH THE TRAINING THEY NEED TO TAKE THEIR GAME TO THE NEXT LEVEL
Growing up in the Bow Valley, us coaches experienced firsthand the challenge of finding high-quality on- and off-ice training for hockey players. As elite players, we spent countless hours traveling just to find competitive teams, and summers offered little relief. Most of us trained alone or made costly trips to Cochrane or Calgary for high-level programs.
We were determined to change that. That’s why we created Be a Pro—to give back to the community that shaped us. Our mission is to provide affordable, high-intensity summer training that not only prepares players physically but also teaches them what it truly means to train like a pro.
At Be a Pro, we’re committed to helping young athletes build habits around more than just hockey. Ensuring that athletes learn what it means to be a professional, whether that's in hockey or another area of life. We put a strong focus on mental health and mindset above all else, as we are strong believers that all good and bad things start in your mind.

ELITE SUMMER PROGRAM
This program is designed for elite U-18, Junior, Collegiate, and Professional players, running five days a week from June 16 to August 15. It offers a unique opportunity to train alongside the very professionals who are coaching them. Participants will gain priceless insights into the habits, techniques, and mindset needed to succeed at the highest levels of the game.
13-15 SUMMER PROGRAM
The focus in this program is on education over peak performance. While athletes will be challenged physically, the priority is mastering details and building a strong foundation to prepare for a smooth transition into the Elite program. Our goal is to instill the value of hard work and a love for the process. Training together helps keep athletes engaged, foster a sense of community, and build a strong culture of hard work and enjoyment in the Canmore hockey community.
HOCKEY CAMPs
This one-week hockey camp, held in Canmore, Alberta, runs from August 4 to August 8 with separate groups for U11 and U13 players. Designed to develop fundamental skills both on and off the ice, this camp provides a fun, safe, and professional environment where young athletes can build a strong foundation for future success.
learn the ways of a professional
The biggest takeaway for any player joining our program is learning to fall in love with the process, not just the destination. We teach athletes that hard work can be enjoyable and emphasize the importance of mindset in training. We provide mental strategies that help players focus on the present, play stress-free, embrace the grind, and approach life with a calm mindset, setting them up for success both on and off the ice.
This program also focuses on what it takes to perform at an elite level. Whether on the ice, in the gym, or following recovery protocols at home, we want players to understand how pros train and what they need to do to reach that level. By being treated like a professional, athletes reinforce the standard they aim to achieve, turning their potential into tangible success.
“be a pro helped me achieve my goals—It improved my mindset and made me not only a better goalie but a better person”
I signed up for BE A PRO to play with higher-level players who want to get better and go hard every day. The program has definitely helped me achieve my goals. It improved my mindset and made me not only a better goalie but also a better person. It also showed me what it takes to reach the next level. What I liked most about the program was the guys—they were unreal and very helpful whenever I asked for feedback. I chose BE A PRO because of the high-quality players in the program, which made it stand out from other options. The benefits I’ve gained from joining BE A PRO include developing a better mindset, building a stronger work ethic, and learning how to have fun while playing the game.

AFFORDABILITY
The costs associated with participating in hockey have sharply risen in recent years. During our upbringing in Canmore, there were limited options for obtaining high-level hockey training. Our sole purpose in launching this program is to assist aspiring professional hockey players in Canmore in advancing to the next level of their careers. Our programs all aim to give players a professional environment while charging a fraction of the cost of big city brands.
The primary objective here is to offer high-level athletic and life skills to those pursuing a career in hockey without imposing a significant financial burden. Additionally, participants will enjoy discounts and access to equipment from Sports Garage, a local sports service and consignment shop located next to the arena in Canmore.
our commitment to giving back
We are deeply committed to giving back to the community that has played an integral role in our journey and success. Recognizing the importance of community support, we believe in leading by example and making a positive impact where it matters most. As part of this commitment, we are proud to pledge a portion of our profits to the Canmore Minor Hockey Association.
In addition to supporting youth hockey, we will also contribute to a different local charity each year, ensuring our efforts reach a wide range of causes that uplift and strengthen our community. This initiative reflects our core values and our desire to create a legacy of generosity, gratitude, and connection.
