(Newswire.net — June 20, 2016) Huntington Beach, CA — Collegiate and professional hockey players often require the services of a professional sports agent. Ideally, a sports agent has had time playing and coaching sports in order to provide better representation for players. Keith McKittrick, a noted hockey coach with college and NHL-level coaching expertise, embodies that experience that players value. Keith recently joined the Gold Star Sports Management firm as a player agent, bringing his years of experience to the firm’s team as an asset that both players and their families will appreciate. From negotiating contracts to signing endorsement deals, making major purchases, or seeking career guidance, players represented by Keith and the team at Gold Star are in good hands. “I’m honored to have been chosen by Gold Star, one of the leading management firms in professional hockey,” says Keith. “I look forward to working with clients and helping to guide them through their playing careers and beyond.”
Gold Star Sports Management is a full-service agency operated by Dan Milstein, an internationally-known entrepreneur and business success story. Gold Star handles a variety of tasks for clients, including player representation in contract negotiations and league arbitration. The firm also has a marketing arm that helps seek out and secure marketing and representation deals for clients, including advertising appearances, spokesperson opportunities, and product and event endorsements. Keith will work closely with professional athletes in the National Hockey League and with collegiate-level players seeking guidance on their current and future career paths as athletes.
McKittrick has nearly 15 years of experience in coaching players to be their best. As an assistant coach for amateur hockey organizations, he was instrumental in helping players at tournaments and the Junior World Championships. He then spent several years as Director of Hockey Operations for the Michigan State University hockey team before joining the Detroit Redwings as an assistant video coach.
