Brendan McIntyre
Instructor
I’ve had the privilege of playing Division 1 & 3 NCAA Hockey in the United States alongside incredible athletes. Through this journey, I learned the value of being a good teammate,competition,and the essentials of success in athletics. I’ve had the honor of sharing the ice with some of the best hockey players, many of whom have played in the National Hockey League. I’ve come to understand that achieving success as an athlete requires hard work, dedication, and character. How you conduct yourself, treat others, and your role as a teammate are pivotal not only in sports but also in life.

OHL Oshawa Generals 2001 Draft Pick
