The majority of Minor Hockey coaches get involved while their children are in the system and leave coaching when their children move on to other interests.

Bob was not one of those coaches. His Minor Hockey coaching tenure began while still a student at Minto High School.

He taught the basics of the game long before he had children of his own and continued coaching after they left the

Minor Hockey system. He personified what every Minor Hockey coach should aspire to be.

     Some of Bob’s proudest moments include:

-  Playing his part in helping children, now adults, reach the pinnacle of the Minto Sports Wall of Fame  

-  Forging lifelong relationships with children and their families

-  Representing Minto Minor Hockey at 2 Provincial Championships

-  Winning numerous K of C Minor Hockey Tournaments

-  Winning the Woodstock Karnes Tournament

-  Coaching his team in an International tournament in Orono, Maine

  Many of Bob’s players went on to succeed at higher levels of hockey and life endeavors. He

 provided them with the basic skills to accomplish their dreams on and off the ice.
