Justin has been an integral part of our program for the past 10 years, demonstrating unwavering commitment to player development, team culture, and organizational excellence. His leadership at the U15 AAA level has been exceptional, highlighted by a Provincial Championship in the 2024–2025 season and a perfect 34–0 regular season record in 2025–2026.
Through his dedication and high-performance standards, Justin has helped transform our U15 AAA program into a model program within the province. His ability to develop athletes both on and off the ice has made a lasting impact on our players and the broader hockey community.
