COLE BEAMIN
FOUNDER / VIDEO COACH
Elite Ice Analytics was founded by Cole Beamin, a current U SPORTS defenseman with the York Lions and a former WHL and SJHL player with years of experience competing at a high level. Originally from Saskatchewan, Cole built his playing career through grit, adaptability, and a sharp on-ice IQ—qualities that now define his coaching style.
While climbing through junior and collegiate hockey, Cole experienced firsthand how valuable video review could be. Not just for correcting mistakes, but for building awareness and confidence. He learned that while no player is perfect for 60 minutes, every game contains teachable moments—successes worth building on and details worth cleaning up.
For Cole, video coaching was transformative.
“It was like taking off the blindfold,” he says. “You think you’re making the right read, but the tape tells the truth. It forced me to take ownership of my habits—things I didn’t even know I was doing wrong until I saw it through a coach’s eyes.” That clarity is exactly what he brings to Elite Ice.
Cole’s goal is to make high-level coaching accessible to players at all stages of their development. Whether you’re grinding through minor hockey or playing post-secondary, the mission is the same: help you see the game more clearly, and elevate your play with purpose.
As Elite Ice Analytics grows, Cole’s vision is to build a national standard for video-first player development—rooted in accountability, confidence, and a real love for the game.
