Goaltender Coach Receives Prestigious Scholarship

   
The Hurricanes organization is truly proud to announce that our Goaltender Coach the past two seasons, Andrew Caines, has been awarded the prestigious Garfield Weston Scholarship Award.  This award is in recognition of community involvement, volunteer experience, high marks and school involvement at a post secondary institution. 

The Garfield Weston Award is the largest scholarship available for community college students. The scholarship has a value of $12000 + a tuition waiver. Also included are a number of leadership conferences throughout the country, a summer work program, a two week course in Europe studying International Business and two weeks in the Netherlands studying the marketing of sustainable energy. It is provided by the Weston family, most notably the owners of the Loblaw's chain.

An amazing achievement for a young man who has been putting in countless hours leading our goaltenders to the best Goals Against Average in the league the past two seasons, all the while earning top honours as a full time student. 

Unfortunately, Andrew won't be able to commit to coaching our tenders this season as he continues his studies and heavy work load. The entire Hurricanes family want to thank Andrew for his committment and knowledge to the Hurricanes Hockey Program and wish him all the best with his future endeavors.

Congratulations to a well respected and well liked guy !
