Jeff Collins

Jeff has a deep passion for the game of hockey, which fuels his effort to bring out the best in the kids he coaches.

Although he’s been playing for nearly 40 years, he started coaching hockey in 2017 when his two sons began to play.

Jeff quickly learned the incredible reward of working with other kids, from first time skaters to seasoned players.

Connecting with the kids, setting high expectations and challenging them to develop their game are core elements of his coaching style.

Dan is a father of three kids that have been playing at SDIA for many years.  When Dan was asked to help out as an assistant coach with the team, he jumped at the opportunity.  It has been a very rewarding experience to watch these kids grow as hockey players and as individuals.  I feel honored to be helping these kids grow their love of this wonderful game.  I get to learn from some of the best coaches around while creating great friendships and memories.
