MEET OUR COACHES
Our coaching staff is the foundation of the West Virginia Vipers program. They bring a wealth of hockey knowledge, experience, and a genuine passion for developing players both on and off the ice. More than just coaches, they are mentors—committed to building character, instilling confidence, and fostering a team-first mentality. With a focus on skill development, accountability, and respect for the game, our coaches create an environment where players can grow, compete, and reach their full potential.
