Meet Your Coaches
Bob Hock
Head Coach
Get to know me:
My favorite thing about coaching hockey is watching players develop—not just their skills on the ice, but also their confidence, teamwork, and love for the game. Seeing everything come together and watching them grow as both athletes and individuals is incredibly rewarding. Many of the kids I’m coaching now, I’ve been coaching since they were 3 or 4 years old, and seeing the success they’re having now is very fulfilling.
I often use this quote: “It’s not the name on the back of the jersey that matters most, it’s the logo on the front.” — Unknown.
However, I always remind players to represent the name on the back and appreciate all the people who help them get to play this game.
Randy Dingwell
Assistant Coach
Get to know me:
My favorite thing about coaching is helping players become the best version of themselves. There will always be somebody faster and somebody slower, but every player can be the best that they can be. Also, just being present in the locker room - you celebrate the wins and try to comfort the loss. Being in the locker room is the one thing you miss as you get older and your playing days are done.
Hockey is the best game on earth. No matter where you go or what you do you will always meet ‘hockey family’.
Joel Korth
Assistant Coach
Get to know me:
One of the best things about coaching is meeting the players and parents out in the communities. Everyone stops to say hello and is excited to see each other. Advice I'd give is: No matter what the sport or activity, volunteer in any way you can it will be repaid.
