Coach Perspective Consultants Launches Mentorship Program to Redefine the Hockey Family Advisor Role

Associated Press6 hours ago

NY, UNITED STATES, June 18, 2025 / EINPresswire.com / -- Backed by 36+ years of NCAA coaching experience, the new service prioritizes development, perspective, and long-term fit over premature recruitment and hype
Coach Perspective Consultants, a newly launched mentorship service for hockey families and players, is setting out to shift the narrative around college hockey recruitment. Founded by longtime NCAA coaches Cam Ellsworth and Ben Murphy, the program offers strategic, development-first guidance rooted in real coaching experience—not promises or placement guarantees.
With decades spent evaluating, recruiting, and mentoring players at the collegiate level, Ellsworth and Murphy created the consultancy to provide families with clarity and insight through every stage of the hockey journey. Unlike traditional 'family advisor' models that often emphasize exposure and outcomes, Coach Perspective Consultants focuses on building strong relationships, developing players holistically, and ensuring the right fit—athletically, academically, and personally.
'We've coached and recruited across all levels, and what families need today isn't more hype. They need honest, clear mentorship that helps them enjoy the journey—not just chase the next opportunity,' said co-founder Ben Murphy.
The mentorship program includes regular player and parent sessions, individualized development plans, recruiting education, and ongoing support tailored to each athlete's path—across both men's and women's hockey. Parent involvement is a key part of the model, with monthly strategy meetings designed to ease pressure, reset expectations, and restore the joy of watching a child play the game they love.
'Recruitment isn't just about where a player can go—it's about where they can grow,' said co-founder Cam Ellsworth. 'We help families recognize what actually matters: development, readiness, and environments that support long-term success.'
By capping their client load at 30 families per consultant, Coach Perspective Consultants ensures that every relationship receives the depth of attention it deserves. Their services are also available to hockey organizations seeking sustainable program-wide development, coach mentorship, and parent engagement strategies.

NFC is getting a range boost

The next version of the Near Field Communication (NFC) standard aims to make it easier to make payments, pair devices, and unlock doors using your phone or smartwatch. The most notable improvement is a boost to the distance of contactless connections from 0.5cm to 2cm, extending the range by x4. The NFC Release 15 standard update means NFC chips shouldn't need to be as precisely aligned with terminals to register a connection, which is especially beneficial for users who have to fumble with smaller devices like smart watches or rings. Tap-to-pay systems like Apple Pay will also start sooner, making contactless payments faster and more reliable. While some devices already register contactless connections at greater distances than 5mm, the NFC Forum behind the standard says the spec update is 'redefining the baseline.' The NFC Release 15 is needed to support contactless applications that 'demand higher reliability and a broader operating range,' according to the NFC Forum. That includes NFC tech being integrated into increasingly smaller devices and performing more complex activities with a single tap, such as using a wallet app to pay for products, receive digital receipts, and collect store loyalty points. The NFC Release 15 is currently available to high level NFC Forum member companies, including Apple, Google, Sony, and Huawei, allowing them to start implementing the improvements in their own products. Compliance certification will be made available to the public sometime this fall. The Verge has asked the NFC Forum if existing NFC devices can be updated to support the new release standard when it rolls out but didn't hear back before publication.
