Brent is a local boy who grew up in the RM of North Cypress just east of Carberry, MB. He’s made the trek to play many a Carberry minor hockey game growing up and his love of the game has not faded.

He has been a coach with Carberry minor hockey for 7 years. His coaching career started in 2003-2004 coaching squirts for his son Josh’s team and continued on as follows: 2004-2006 Novice, 2006-2008 Atoms and 2008-2010 Pee Wee.

In 2011 he became the S.W.H.L Convener and is still continues to hold that post.

He co-chaired the Bantam Tournament of Champions in 2010, became Chair in 2011 and is chairing this year’s tournament which will be held in January. Carberry has not had a Bantam team for the past two years so in order to keep the tournament in town, Brent has taken this to task and has a team to work with to keep this tournament running.

After coaching for seven years he decided to take on the additional task of being a referee. He has been a certified official for 3 years starting in 2010 and his services are in high demand.

Brent has also been actively involved with the Carberry Minor Hockey Executive. He has been Referee-in-Chief for the past two years, Vice President in 2007-2008, President from 2008-2009, Past President from 2009-2011, and has volunteered his time in many other capacities previous to this for many years.
