About Coach Stan:
Stan Tugolukov has fully dedicated his life to hockey: playing it, teaching it, developing techniques for teams and individuals of all levels, ages and even physical abilities. Stan was born in 1970 in Chelyabinsk, Russia. He started playing sports at the very early age and quickly became a leading player of his school hockey team TRAKTOR-70. Stan was advancing as an athlete so rapidly that by the age 15 he was selected to play with the pro-team METALLURG, Chelyabinsk.
Stan’s hockey career during the 1980s was streamlining. In 1985 he played as a member of National Soviet Junior Hockey team for international tournament in Finland where he was recognized as MVP of the tournament. At the age of 17 Stan Tugolukov became a star of the Soviet National Junior Hockey playing for the Soviet National Team next to such renowned Russian hockey stars as Pavel Bure, Sergey Zubov, Alexei Zhamnov, Igor Korolev, Alexander Karpovtzev, Andrei Kovalenko and Viacheslav Buzaev.
During 1980s and 1990s Stan played as a member of the leading Soviet and Russian Hockey teams including “Traktor”, Chelyabinsk and “Mechel”, Chelyabinsk. Stan’s glorious collection contains honorary cups, medals and other awards from numerous national and international hockey competitions and tournaments.
In 1997 Stan Tugolukov earned his Bachelor Degree in Physical Education and Hockey Training from Ural National Sports Academy. In 1998 Stan acquired honorary title of the Sports Master of Russia. Stanislav’s hockey career, however, was jeopardized due to severe sports injury and rehabilitation. This unfortunate event became a turning point in Stan’s professional interests. It also changed his general outlook on life. He became a professional hockey coach.
The concept of coaching was not new to Stanislav even years earlier. He was a hockey instructor in high schools and fitness clubs since 1987. However, the sudden cut from playing and painful rehabilitation process encouraged Stanislav to mature and fill the void in his passion for hockey by making a difference in hockey education. The mission of raising professional athletes as well as youth with various disabilities has become the central purpose of Stanislav’s life. His excellent training background and supreme dedication to his students resulted in remarkable success of Stanislav Tugolukov’s coaching enterprise. Stanislav was awarded honorary diploma for “Significant contribution to the Russian National Youth Hockey”. In two consecutive years (1999 and 2000) he was awarded honorary diplomas of Russian National Hockey Club “Golden Puck” named after the legendary hockey coach Anatoly Tarasov.
Coach Stan has successfully lead his teams to the regional and national championships. His Colleyville Heritage Varsity Team has been awarded with the best record in the league title in two consecutive years (SBC League, TX).
In 2005 Fort Worth Star Telegram has named Stan the Coach of the Year.
Today, Stanislav Tugolukov is a highly respected member of ice hockey community worldwide. He currently advances his education at University of Texas at Arlington and conducts master training sessions for numerous highly reputable youth hockey clubs of the United States, Canada and Russia.
