Venom HC Welcomes Brendan Werbin as Video/Analytics Coach

Venom HC Management

Venom HC AAA Hockey Program is excited to announce the newest addition to our coaching staff, Brendan Werbin, who will be joining us as our Video/Analytics Coach. With a deep passion for the game and a strong background in hockey analytics, systems, and player development, Brendan brings invaluable expertise to our program.


A Lifelong Passion for the Game

Brendan’s hockey journey began in Montreal with Lakeshore Minor Hockey, where he developed a love for the game at an early age. Growing up, he was immersed in hockey academies and spent five to seven days a week on the ice, refining his skills and understanding of the sport. After relocating to British Columbia, he continued his playing career with the Ridge Meadows Rustlers and furthered his hockey development.

Brendan’s time on the ice eventually led him to coaching and instructing, where he began teaching skating lessons and introductory hockey classes with the City of Maple Ridge. His ability to break down the game and communicate complex systems in a way that young players could understand set him apart as a coach early on.



A Growing Career in Hockey Operations and Scouting

Brendan took his passion for the sport beyond playing and coaching, stepping into the hockey industry with the Coquitlam Express (BCHL). His keen eye for talent and deep understanding of player development allowed him to take on a scouting role, identifying and evaluating players across the Lower Mainland. Today, he serves as a BC Scout for the Camrose Kodiaks (AJHL), continuing his work in player evaluation at the junior level.


A Deep Understanding of Systems and Analytics

What makes Brendan an invaluable addition to Venom HC is his expertise in hockey analytics, team systems, and player advising. With the evolution of the game, video analysis has become a crucial tool for players looking to gain an edge. Brendan specializes in breaking down game film, studying patterns, and helping players understand the nuances of their positioning, decision-making, and execution. His ability to provide detailed feedback through analytics and video review ensures that players are not just learning but applying insights to improve their game in real time.


Personalized Player Development

Beyond his work in scouting and analytics, Brendan is deeply committed to individual player coaching and advising. He has worked with athletes across the country, providing personalized guidance to help them refine their skills and elevate their game. Whether through film study, system breakdowns, or one-on-one coaching, he has a track record of helping players make the adjustments needed to compete at higher levels. His approach goes beyond on-ice performance—he is dedicated to shaping well-rounded athletes who understand the game both mentally and physically.


A Welcome Addition to Venom HC

We are thrilled to have Brendan on board, bringing his knowledge, experience, and passion for player development to Venom HC. His ability to break down the game, analyze systems, and provide players with actionable insights will be a game-changer for our athletes.

Welcome to the Venom family, Brendan! We look forward to seeing the impact you make on our players and program.
