Welcome to our what’s in the bag series!
What’s up my friends! Jeremy Weiss here with Weiss Tech Hockey, and welcome back to our “What’s in the Bag?” series. This is where I’m going through my Weiss Tech Essentials and showing you all the tools that I use as a coach with my own teams.
This series is on-going… so click the link below for the full Table of Contents.
This post is simple, but important. You need a helmet kit in your bag. I’ve kept one in my bag for many years, and it always comes in handy.
Here’s the one I recommend on Amazon:
A&R Sports Helmet Repair Kit
- Hockey Helmet Repair Parts
- Contains 2 Dome Screws,2 Clips, 2 Cage Clips, 2 Helmet Buckles,4 Short Black Nuts,2 Long Screws, 4 Short Screws and 1 Phillips-Head Screwdriver
- Compatible With All Brands and Sizes
- From A&R Sports, the leading brand in sports accessories for over 20 years
Disclosure: Some of the links on this site are affiliate links. This means that, at zero cost to you, I will earn an affiliate commission if you click through the link and finalize a purchase.
Why I keep this helmet kit in my bag always:
- COMES WITH A SCREW DRIVER – You need a screw driver anyways. This one includes a short one that is perfect for all your helmet needs.
- RUGGED BOX TO HOLD ALL THE PARTS – The screw driver and all the parts fit into a compact box that is rugged and can take the beating of regular use in practices and games.
- COLLECTION OF RANDOM SCREWS AND PARTS – The box also comes in handy for any other random parts that show up. How often have you found a screw on the ice, or in the team box. You can’t identify whose helmet it came from… Now, instead of tossing it, you keep it in the box
Grab a helmet kit if you don’t have one already. It’ll save you in a pinch, and your players will thank you!
Again, go to Table of Contents page for this series, and you’ll see all the other products… Everything that is in my very own coaching bag. By the end of this you’ll have seen everything I use in my coaching, and the reasons why I’m using each item.
Hope it helps! See you in the next video!

He majored in Exercise Sciences at Brigham Young University, and subsequently worked as a Personal Trainer, where he continued to study and develop ideal training methods for hockey.
