In episode 319 of the Glass and Out Podcast we welcome the focus of our new Shift Change documentary, Head Coach of the Lloydminster Lancers U18 AAA team, Chris King.

If you haven't heard the incredible story behind his switch from National Champion basketball coach to youth hockey bench boss, you can check out the first two episodes of Shift Change now on The Coaches Site.

In summary: After incredible success with the Lakeland College women's program, including being named ACAC Coach of the Year a six times and National Coach of the Year twice, King was fired based on a complaint from a disgruntled former player. The Lloydminster Lancers of the Alberta U18 AAA league were looking for a coach to resurrect the struggling program. In stepped King.

Could a career basketball coach shift to the ice and replicate the same success he enjoyed on the court?

Listen as he explains the background behind the unlikely switch, how coaching girls and boys differs, and why shinny is a critical part of developing creativity and problem solving.
