Roller Hockey London
This one’s special. Ryan sits down with three of his business partners — Eric, Cassandra, and Joel — to break down how they accidentally built one of the fastest‑growing roller hockey communities in Canada: Roller Hockey London.
What started as a side‑hustle passion project has turned into an 8‑year movement with hundreds of families, a thriving youth program, international opportunities, and a culture that feels more like a festival than a sports league.
In this episode, the crew gets into:
- How a couple of friends discovered roller hockey and turned it into a legit business
- Why roller hockey is exploding globally (and why Canada is late to the party)
- The business model behind running a league — costs, barriers to entry, and what makes it work
- The insane development benefits for kids (more puck touches, more creativity, more fun)
- Stories from playing and coaching around the world — Italy, Argentina, Colombia, and beyond
- The rise of pro roller hockey and where the sport is headed
- What’s coming next for RHL: tournaments, academies, Ironman events, and a potential pro showcase
It’s part entrepreneurship, part sports nerdery, part “build cool stuff with people you like.”
If you’ve ever thought about starting a league, a community, or a side business that actually matters — this episode is a blueprint.
