Walpole, Mass. – The Walpole Express/RB Hockey organization and Evolution Sports Performance have launched a new partnership for the 2014-2015 season intended to elevate the fitness of elite and developing hockey players as a way to strengthen their on-ice performance.
The Evolution staff, headed by Coach Anthony Black, will train the Walpole Express’ men's junior A and B teams, the Express' women's junior team. In addition, all RB Hockey, NEH, and girls youth players have the option to attend Evolution-led strength and conditioning camps.
“We have partnered with Evolution for next season as a way to further enhance opportunities for our players,” said Express owner Rob Barletta. “We know that athletes who train hard and consistently in the gym are likely to excel on the ice. And the better our athletes perform, the more appealing they become to scouts and recruiters, and the more opportunities they are likely to have to play at higher and higher levels.”
“Evolution’s staff is top notch and I am confident their trainers will provide the careful program design, structure and oversight that will help our players reach their potential,” Barletta added.
To show its support for the Express organization, Evolution plans to revamp the teams’ locker rooms at Rodman Arena, which serves as home ice. “We want to demonstrate in a tangible way our commitment to the Express organization,” said Brittany Engle Program Director of Evolution Sport Performance. “We are excited about this new partnership and are eager to make it a successful one.”
