Hockey Background: I am a Certified High-Performance Coach with Hockey Canada and have been coaching hockey for 20 years, with much of that experience at AAA and CCHL Junior A. Coaching Philosophy / Season Goal: The primary purpose for my involvement in youth sport is developing young people. This involves their social, emotional, and psychological development as well as the more obvious physical development as hockey players. We will develop a group of players that prioritize a team-first approach to the game. Within this framework, a strong understanding of the value of hard work, commitment, and team play will be established. I am excited to work with this team and can’t wait for the season to start. 2024-2025 Tournaments:

Hello my name is Drum Robertson. I bring a wealth of knowledge and a strong commitment to coaching the Blues U18 Boys this year. My background as a Registered Massage Therapist, my military service, and my involvement in competitive sports all contribute to a diverse set of skills that I will bring to my coaching role. Hockey Background: I have played hockey since I was 6 and stopped playing competitively at 18, but continue to play beer league. Through the years I have had some great coaches who where excellent role models for me to emulate. I started coaching hockey when my son started playing 10 years ago. I have been an assistant coach and head coach with the Blues for the past 6 years. Coaching Philosophy / Season Goal: As coaches we play a role in preparing young men for life through hockey. I mean to provide an environment to enable the boys to have fun, to continue learn about being part of a team, while learning the fundamental skills needed to compete, succeed, and enjoy hockey for a long time. Through reenforcing a strong work ethic, discipline as well as respect for teammates, opponents, officials, and supporters, in a positive and fun environment. 2024-2025 Tournaments:
