The Wildcats Coaching Staff for the 2017–18 season is committed to providing every player with a positive, competitive, and development-focused hockey experience. Our coaches bring together years of playing and coaching knowledge, creating an environment where athletes can improve their skills, build confidence, and develop a deeper understanding of the game. Every member of the staff shares the same goal—helping players reach their full potential while fostering a lifelong passion for hockey.
Throughout the season, coaches work closely with athletes across all age groups, delivering structured practices that emphasize skating, puck handling, passing, shooting, defensive play, and overall hockey awareness. Training sessions are carefully planned to challenge players at every stage of development while ensuring that practices remain engaging, productive, and enjoyable. Individual instruction is combined with team-based drills to help athletes strengthen both their personal abilities and their understanding of teamwork.
The coaching staff also focuses on developing qualities that extend beyond hockey. Respect, discipline, accountability, communication, leadership, and sportsmanship are core values integrated into every practice and game. Coaches encourage players to support one another, maintain a positive attitude, and represent the Wildcats organization with pride both on and off the ice.
Each team benefits from coaches who understand the importance of long-term player development. Regular evaluations and constructive feedback help athletes recognize their strengths, identify areas for improvement, and establish goals that support continued progress throughout the season. Open communication between coaches, players, and families ensures that everyone works together toward creating a rewarding hockey experience.
The Wildcats organization believes that great coaching is about more than teaching skills—it is about inspiring confidence, encouraging personal growth, and creating a culture built on dedication and mutual respect. Whether working with beginners or advanced players preparing for higher levels of competition, the coaching staff remains committed to providing professional guidance, positive mentorship, and opportunities for every athlete to succeed.
As the 2017–18 season unfolds, the Wildcats Coaching Staff continues to uphold the club’s tradition of excellence by combining experience, passion, and a commitment to player development. Together, they help build confident athletes, strong teammates, and responsible young individuals who are prepared for success both on the ice and in everyday life.
