Tim McLaughlin - Head Coach
The 2008-2009 season will be my 5th year with the Junior Gold program; and second year as the head coach. I have helped coach with various teams within RYHA for the past 13 years as my sons moved through the program. I consider myself a hockey dad, PR guy, team manager, and coach, but most of all - I'm a hockey fan! I'm really excited to lead the team again this year, and looking forward to working with all of you during the season.
Brad Berge - Assistant Coach
This season marks the 3rd year that Coach Berge has been involved with the program in a coaching capacity. Brad grew up playing youth hockey in Rochester, and has a passion for sharing that experience with the team. Brad also played at the Junior Gold level for four years as a forward. Brad brings youth and passion to the coaching staff.
Chris Roberts - Assistant Coach
This season marks the 3rd year that Coach Roberts has been involved with the program in a coaching capacity. Chris also grew up playing youth hockey in Rochester, and his specialty is playing the defensive position. Chris also played at the Junior Gold level for four years and we are stoked that he is back to help coach the team.
Matt Schotte - Assistant Coach
Great news for the team - Coach Schotte will be back for the 2008-2009 season. Matt has coached within RYHA for many years and even though his son graduated from the program last year, Matt is excited to come back and help lead the team again this season. Matt's knowledge and passion for the game is unsurpassed.
