Woodcroft in action: Successful support for the Slovakian team!
There's a lot going on in the ice hockey scene in Landshut at the moment, as the Germany Cup is just around the corner. The 53-year-old Canadian Todd Woodcroft, head coach of the Kassel Huskies, traveled with sports director Daniel Kreutzer to follow the tournament games live and to gain valuable impressions for future work. As the Kassel Huskies report, the Slovak Ice Hockey Association asked Woodcroft for support for the Slovak coaching team, which urgently needs reinforcements due to absences.
Woodcroft has an impressive international career that has already taken him to the big stage: he has worked with four nations at a total of seven senior and two U20 World Cups. His most significant achievements include winning the gold medal with Team Canada in 2004 and the bronze medal with Sweden's U20 team in 2022. A great honor for Woodcroft, which was also recognized by Derek Dinger, managing director of the EC Kassel Huskies. He sees the request from the Slovakian association as a special sign of trust.
The Germany Cup is coming up
The men's Germany Cup begins on Thursday, with Slovakia playing their first game against Austria. Germany face Latvia, which is sure to have fans elated in the coming days. A particularly exciting duel is coming up on Sunday when the Slovakia team, supported by Woodcroft, meets the German team.
Meanwhile, the Germany Women's Cup starts on Wednesday - a full month for ice hockey fans that offers everything their hearts desire. The sporty atmosphere in Landshut will certainly be exciting and make the ice glow.
Woodcroft himself seems optimistic and excited about the opportunity to actively participate in the tournament. He considers the experience extremely valuable for his work with the Huskies and for the development of Slovak ice hockey.
In this exciting time when everything revolves around the sport of ice hockey, we are eagerly awaiting the spectacular games and how the teams will perform. With Woodcroft in the Slovakia coaching team, the team has strong support that certainly has a lot to offer.
