The
Tofield Satellites will have three familiar faces behind their bench for the upcoming
Battle River Hockey League season. Rick Neufeld returns for his second
season as Head Coach. Under Neufeld's guidance last year, the team finished second
in the regular season and made it to Game 7 of the semifinals before bowing out
to the Irma Aces. Neufeld was named Battle River Hockey League Coach of the Year.
Joining Neufeld behind the bench as Assistant Coaches this season are Lionel
Williams and Ray Lehman. Williams was Tofield's Head Coach for its first 3 seasons, winning the BRHL Coach of the Year Award in 2004-2005. Lehman retired as a forward following the 2005-2006 season, but it eager to get back involved with the team as an Assistant Coach. The moves mark the departure of last year's Assistants Cliff Horricks and Dick Thomson. Horricks had been with the Satellites for their first four seasons. Thomson spent one year with the team. |
