Coppell Hockey is pleased to announce the addition of Chris Shakesby to the Coppell Hockey Coaching Staff as the new Coppell JV Coach.
Coaching Philosophy
Chris was born in Montreal, Canada and began playing hockey at the age of 4. He moved to the Dallas-Fort Worth area in the 4th grade, and played the majority of his youth hockey in the Dallas area. Chris is a firm believer in hard work and he expects hard work out of the players. The development of the players is very important and without hard work, the development will move at a much slower pace. However, Chris believes that players work the hardest when they are having fun, so he strives to ensure that players have a fun environment and have fun playing hockey.
Chris currently resides in Coppell with his fiancé Ali.
