SJHL CHAMPS KEEPING THEIR COACH

Bob Beatty isn’t going anywhere for a long time. The La Ronge Ice Wolves announced Thursday that Beatty, who has guided the team to the last two Credit Union Cup championships, has signed a 5 year contract extension with the club.



Beatty has been with the Ice Wolves organization for the past seven years. Since assuming the head coaching duties in 2004, he has compiled a 182-161-12-25 record with the team winning the SJHL championship the past two years. Beatty has also been named the SJHL coach of the year three times---twice with Humboldt and once this past season.

Ice Wolves president Terry Helary is ecstatic knowing Beatty will continue to be a fixture in the organization.



“We are obviously very happy to have Bob sign on for an additional five years,“ Helary said. It shows the La Ronge Ice Wolves are a solid franchise in the SJHL and that our fans can take comfort in knowing we have the best Coach and GM in the business.“
