Guiding Players with Clarity, Purpose, and Experience
Your hockey journey doesn’t pause for business hours, and neither does our support for your success. Whether you’re facing a difficult decision about team selection, dealing with a challenging coaching situation, celebrating a breakthrough performance, or needing guidance before an important meeting, we’re accessible when you need us most. Unlike traditional advising relationships that limit communication to scheduled appointments, we understand that the moments when you need experienced guidance most urgently often can’t wait for the next business day.
Who Are We
After decades of coaching hockey at elite levels, Ben Murphy and Cam Ellsworth took a purposeful step beyond the bench to create a new kind of partnership — one focused on helping families navigate the complex and competitive world of hockey with confidence and clarity.
With over 36 years of combined coaching experience across NCAA Division I (Men & Women), Division III, and USHL programs, Ben and Cam bring an unmatched perspective shaped by years of evaluating talent, developing players, and building successful programs from the ground up.
Their shift from collegiate coaching to family consulting is built on a core belief — the hockey journey should be about development, not just destinations. They understand that true success is achieved not only when goals are met, but when players and families genuinely grow and enjoy the process.
At Coach Perspective Consultants (CPC), Ben and Cam offer virtual, one-on-one consultation and mentorship rooted in transparency, strategy, and experience. Their approach helps families make informed decisions, set realistic pathways, and focus on long-term growth — ensuring every step of the journey is guided by knowledge, purpose, and trust.
