posted 01/27/2012
Jamie Bird - Rochester Monarch U16 Full-Season Coach: Jamie returns to Perinton Youth Hockey as the coach of the U16 Full-Season team. Jamie brings ten years of coaching experience and will direct the program development of our NEW U16 team. Coach Bird and his staff will develop our ’96 and ’97 birth year players seeking an alternative to high school and junior hockey while continuing their education at home. The team will compete for a NYSAHA Championship at the Tier I level as well as tournaments and showcases that best advance our players who desire to play at a higher level. This program is designed for committed players who expect to gain exposure from both Junior and Prep School scouts. Jamie played 9 years starting in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League and stints in the AHL, ECHL and UHL.
Jim Young, Perinton Youth Hockey President states - "Jamie has been a coach in our organization and played at a higher level, making the difficult decision of where to play in the later years of his youth career. He knows the challenges and will be a phenomenal resource for our Midget players to learn from both on and off the ice. We are pleased to have Jamie come back and lead this new program for us."
All 2012-13 Monarch Teams will practice at centrally located rinks to ease the weeknight commute to/from practices for players across Greater Rochester making it easier for players to participate in the Rochester Monarch program. After tryouts, once teams are selected practice rinks will be selected based on team demographics.
