A Better Way to Play the Game

 

A 'real world' approach to the game. Expertise that could save you thousands of dollars and precious time!

Player services are available on a first come, first serve basis for those who want a more personalized experience.

 

Please note that while Swan Hockey offers these programs, we are not considered an "Advisory". We are not loading up on players for the Consulting/Advising Program. The Consulting/Advising Program is extremely limited. The plan is to never have more than 20 players/families at once. If you think this could be for you, just click "more info/pricing" and follow the on screen instructions.

Player Placement Program

Get the advantage of the Swan Hockey network of teams and coaches. The focus of this program is simply trying to place the player on a team.

Less tryouts(if any) = more money saved, more time saved, more money and time for training/getting better at hockey. 

 

A better way to play the game!

Consulting/Advising Program

Inclusive of the Player Placement Program, the Consulting/Advising program will also feature consultation appointments to help guide the player/family through their journey. Taking a 'real world' approach makes some of the most confusing situations all of a sudden crystal clear.

Working with Eric was a great experience and I was able to learn a lot from him and his events. Weekly calls with Eric himself help tremendously to instill stability and a set in stone plan for success. He is a very personable guy who feels like a friend you can talk to. In addition to his advising, he has tournament teams for events such as Pre-draft and Chowder Cup. Playing on his team was very fun and Eric goes above and beyond to make sure we get the most out of our time. We had a seminar with various coaches and learned a lot from their experiences and their advice. Overall I was highly satisfied with the experience and recommend it to everyone.

We met Eric 8 years ago and didn’t listen, Eric told us he had a spot for a goalie on a competitive team, we didn’t listen. We spent an exorbitant amount of money chasing JR A invites in western Canada that were nothing but costly long weekends, then Eric had a difficult conversation with our son. When we did listen, Eric had a team with an opening, our son had his greatest hockey experience with an amazing billet family going to nationals .

Thank you Eric for all the help and constant mentorship through JR and into College.

"I have owned junior hockey teams over the last 40 years and have been scouting in the QMJHL with the Moncton Wildcats for over 20 years. Eric's operation is first class. I have spoken at his seminars and have seen him in action first hand. His understanding of the game is a huge asset for anyone looking to play and climb the ranks."

I have enjoyed working with Eric throughout my years of coaching. Eric works extremely hard for his players and doesn't oversell them. You know he is straight forward regarding his point of reference on players and I respect the back and forth dialogue regarding any player or situation. Eric's communication is excellent and transparent. I look forward to continue to working with Eric for many years moving forward....

Craig Doremus

Former General Manager/ Head Coach

Having known Eric for some time now, he has the ability and networking to open opportunities for players who desire to play junior and college hockey. A smart investment for players and families.

Marc Lafleur

Asst. Coach

I have coached at the Junior A or NCAA level the past 24 years and have developed a strong network in regards to recruiting. I value Eric Swanick as a valuable part of my recruiting network; Eric has a reliable eye for talent and works tirelessly for the players he represents. I trust Eric Swanick when building my team and look forward to working with him in the future.

Fred Harbinson

President/GM/Head Coach

To whom it may concern, In my dealing with Eric over the years he has been nothing but professional and knowledgable. I keep in close contact with Eric about players he may know of that fits the needs of Hawkesbury. I continue to go back to him because he doesn't push every player to your program. He takes the time to understand the needs and works with you to fill those with players within his portfolio. I would recommend his services to teams looking for players.

Rick Dorval

Former Asst. Coach(Former GM/Head Coach Hawksbury Hawks CCHL)

I’ve known Eric for 6 years and have enjoyed working with him in regards to player representation at both the tier3 and tier2 junior level. Eric is committed to his players and works tirelessly to find the “right” situation for both the player and teams he is working with. Eric understands that every career is different and their is not just one path that works for all. Eric invest the time to truly learn who his clients are as players but more importantly who they are as people. I recommend Eric to anyone that is looking for honest and hard working representation.

Cam Robichaud
