Testimonials
Jen (Parent)
“Alyc is an exceptional hockey coach who is truly dedicated to the players. I have known Alyc for two years, and in that time, I have seen firsthand how patient, encouraging, and skilled Alyc is when working with kids. Alyc creates a positive and supportive environment where young athletes can develop their skills, build confidence, and grow their love for the game. My child loves hockey and has learned so much under Alyc’s guidance, especially in terms of patience and respect. Alyc’s ability to connect with each player, no matter their skill level, makes Alyc an outstanding mentor. Alyc’s passion for hockey and commitment to the team make Alyc an invaluable coach and role model.”
