Jakob "Köbi" Kölliker (born July 21, 1953 in Biel ) is a former Swiss ice hockey player and current coach and functionary. Since 2019 he has been the head coach of EV Bomo Thun from the Swiss Women's Hockey League A ( women's ice hockey ).
Player career
Kölliker played for the Swiss national ice hockey team for the first time in 1973 at the age of 20 . Two Olympic Games and twelve ice hockey world championships later, with a total of 213 international matches, he set a long-standing Swiss record that has remained in the memory of many ice hockey fans. This was only outbid in February 2007 by Martin Steinegger , who in turn was replaced by Ivo Rüthemann as the record international in April 2009 .
The defender Kölliker played in over 500 league games at national level and won three championships with EHC Biel .
Coaching career
After he had finished his playing career, he returned for the 1993/94 season as a coach at EHC Biel . He was released in December 93. In the following years he worked at SC Langnau initially as an assistant and later as head coach. In 1998 he led the team to promotion from the NLB to the NLA.
From 1999 he was coach of the Swiss U20 national ice hockey team and at the same time assistant to Ralph Krueger for the Swiss national ice hockey team until 2010.
In 2007 he was honored for his services with the induction into the IIHF Hall of Fame .
From 2011 to 2012, Kölliker was the successor to Uwe Krupp as coach of the German national ice hockey team , but was relieved of his duties after finishing 12th at the 2012 men's ice hockey world championship .
In November 2012, Kölliker returned to the SCL Tigers as head of sport . In April 2013 he jumped in as an interim coach for the remaining relegation games, but could not prevent relegation to the National League B.
In September 2014 he took over the position of sports director at EHC Olten . In March 2016, after the EHCO split from head coach Heikki Leime during the play-off semi-final series , Kölliker took over the interim coaching position together with Canadian player Éric Beaudoin . The intended entry into the final was missed. After the disappointing performance in the 2016/17 season (quarter-final against the Rapperswil-Jona Lakers ), Kölliker was released from the club management.
In the 2018/19 season he worked for the Chinese ice hockey association as part of the China project and was head coach of both the Chinese U20 national ice hockey team and the women's national team . In July 2019 he took over the position of head coach at EV Bomo Thun from the Switzerland women's ice hockey league .
