Who does RRi work with?
RRi works with hockey players and families navigating advising, representation, development, mentorship, and pathway decisions across junior, collegiate, women’s hockey, and professional routes.
Working With RRi
Does a player need to be at a specific level to reach out?
No. Some families reach out while evaluating early pathway options, while others are preparing for major transitions. The conversation is most useful when there is a real decision, goal, or question to work through.
What happens in the first consultation?
The first conversation is typically about understanding the player, current level, goals, concerns, and timeline. RRi uses that context to identify where support can be most useful next.
Services and Guidance
What is the difference between advising and representation?
Advising is focused on decision-making, fit, timing, and planning. Representation adds advocacy, communication, and strategy around opportunities as a player works toward the next level.
Is development only about on-ice skill?
No. Development support can include readiness, habits, performance, mindset, and the pieces of progression that matter to the level the athlete is pursuing.
How does mentorship fit into the process?
Mentorship supports the athlete and family through pressure, transitions, confidence issues, and long-view growth. It often complements advising and development rather than replacing them.
Pathways and Process
Can RRi help with junior, college, and women’s hockey pathways?
Yes. RRi supports multiple pathways and helps families think clearly about fit, progression, and what route makes the most sense for the athlete right now.
How do families know which route is realistic?
That usually starts with an honest assessment of the player’s level, goals, timeline, and the environments where growth is most likely. Good pathway decisions are built around fit, not guesswork.
What should a family prepare before contacting RRi?
It helps to know the player’s current age group or level, recent situation, the main goal or decision being faced, and any timing issues that matter right now.
