Jake Stirzel
10UBB Head Coach/12UAA & 14UAA Assistant Coach

Coaching Philosophy
As a coach, I am committed to helping grow athletes to become better both on and off the ice. I look to teach athletes the important qualities of respect, sportsmanship, work ethic, teamwork, goal setting, and responsibility that will help them grow as better athletes and better people. At the end of each season, I look forward to seeing the massive improvements and development of each individual player. Most importantly, I look to emphasize the FUN part of Hockey and ensure that each player enjoys the game and are learning at the same time.
Reasons for Coaching
I was born and raised in Southern California and at the age of 5 I threw on the skates and fell in love with the game of Hockey. When I finished playing, I knew that coaching was the next step for me in hockey. I want to be able to give back to the game that has given me so much, and to be able to inspire new hockey players to love the game as much as I do. With all my experience and knowledge of the game of hockey, I feel that I can provide a positive impact on each player and help teach them the important aspects of the game.
