Testimonials

“Coach Robb played a major role in my development. He takes pride in coming to the rink and creates a healthy competitive atmosphere everyday. He brought me in as a U18 AA goaltender and turned me into a Junior A CCHL goaltender in 2 short years.”

“Coach Robb has been an instrumental figure in my hockey career thus far. Since I was 13 years old and fresh from New Zealand, he helped me grow and develop into the player I am today. He believed in me every step along the way and has helped accomplish my goals of playing junior hockey”.

“"Coach Robb had a major impact on my hockey development after my OHL draft year. He brought me in my U18 year after getting cut from Junior B/C and U18 AAA. Coach Robb believed in my skills and brought pride and joy to the rink every single day. He challenged and pushed me to do my very best everyday and stressed the little things that helped me in one short year become a CCHL defenseman."

“Coach Serviss has guided and mentored me for the last 4 years. He connected me with coaches from Junior A to the NCAA using his coaching network. This is a coach who builds relationships, truly cares and I can’t thank him enough for getting me to Hobart”.
