CHICAGO, IL - EHK Sports members Mike Pilon and Marc Robitaille will be travelling to Europe this week (Oct. 20-27) to deliver a hockey program in Chelmsford, England along with former NHL Coach Ted Sator who is now the Head Coach of the Slovenian National Men's Team.

Following this camp, Coach Pilon and Robitaille will travel to Ljubljana, Slovenia to conduct a one day clinic (Oct. 28) with the Slovenian U18 and U20 National teams - as well as select players from around the region at the Alfa Sport Academy where Coach Sator is currently the Hockey Director.

EHK Sports will be the first North American company to work with the country's up and coming talent.  "We thank Ted and the Slovenian Hockey Federation for this opportunity to work with the National Teams.  We're excited and look forward to an exciting day of hockey in Ljubljana", stated EHK Sports VP Mike Pilon.  "With the success of current NHL'er Anze Kopitar in Los Angeles, I'm sure that we'll be very surprised by the quality of player there.  For them, having the chance to develop under someone like Ted Sator is truly remarkable and the Federation as whole I expect to make positive strides in the very near future".
