2026-2027 coach announcements
The Panther High Performance Program is pleased to confirm that David Heath will again coach the U15AA team for the 2026-2027 season.

In 2024-2025 David's U15AA finished first in their loop and was ranked among the top 10 teams in Ontario. So far in 2025-2026 the team is building on last season's success and is again first in their loop and ranked in the top 10 teams in the province.

In addition to the U15AA announcement, Steve Dempsey will return as the Panther U22AA coach, continue as our coach mentor, and will oversee the entire PHP Program.

Other PHP coaches will be named in the near future and we will begin discussions with coach candidates for all other rep teams shortly.
