Celebrating National Coaches Week

National Coaches Week: Celebrating 10 Years of #ThanksCoach!

This year marks the 10th anniversary of National Coaches Week, a time to celebrate the incredible impact coaches have on athletes and communities across Canada. From September 16-22, 2024, join Hockey Edmonton and Canadians everywhere in recognizing the vital role coaches play in developing athletes, building character, and fostering community.

At Hockey Edmonton, we’re proud to honor the dedication and commitment of our coaches, who help shape the future of young athletes every day. Whether you’re a current player or a former one, now is the perfect time to say #ThanksCoach and show your appreciation for their hard work and support.
