It's early but there are already a few openings:

Moorhead
Shakopee
Champlin Park

Are there any others?

I always thought he did a good job with that team over the years. Too bad... Live and learn I guess.

Park of Cottage Grove has an opening.
They have had the numbers, but don't seem to hire the right people to put all the pieces of the puzzle together correctly.

That makes 4 so far, I know GHS used to put together a list of openings, and it seemed that about 20% of jobs opened each season. It seems like the turnover in girls has been down the last couple years, and up in boys, although I have no concrete data to support. It just seems more stable the past two off-seasons.

Moorhead is taking their search serious in posting an ad in LPH last week even!

Tough situation right now at Park and Woodbury with an eventual East Ridge program that will get the majority of the younger players in the newer part of the area I believe?

Here's the 2009 off-season thread for openings coming into the 2009-10 season:

Never really captured anything from the end of filling posiitons in 2007 (headed into 2007-8 thru the above)

And here was the thread with 2004-2007 openings (heading into the 2004-5 through 2007-8 seasons):

http://www.ushsho.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=9456

From 2004-2006:

2006 = 32 of 124 jobs opened this year (25.8%)
2005 = 25 of 122 jobs opened this year (20.5%).
2004 = 21 of 122 jobs opened this year (17.2%).

I haven't followed as closely, but the turnover seems to be down. This is good for the game.

You can Albert Lea to the list

Thanks GHS, I knew I could count on you to pull up the old numbers. Good to see the trend towards longer tenure for coaches. I for one think stability is good for a program, although some people may not always agree.

Centennial Girls high school hockey coach resigned. Where do the Cougar girls go from here?

Is this good or bad for the Cougar program, anyone have any insight?

Love the players, hate the parents

What about the assistant coach who was offered the wbl job couple years ago?

Cloquet is looking for a new coach. Article at http://www.northlandsportsonline.com

hockey21 · Post by **hockey21** » Thu Mar 11, 2010 11:55 am

Dick Bartholdi is one of the most professional coaches I have ever met, they would not even have a program near the success Cloquet has had if it was not for him. I am not sure of the details but if this was a parent deal to get a new coach the grass is not always green with someone else. Dick is one of the best coaches I have ever been around.

The Centennial program will not be the same with out coach Diggins, he again has sustained a tremendous program and had tremendous success.
I heard coach Diggins took the head football job at Centennial, best of luck to him.

These are two great coaches in girls hockey at the high school level and both will be missed a ton by coaches and players. Thank you to what both of you have brought to High School Girls Hockey, it is better because of you two.

Not bad.....He got the head football position wth the Centennial. He will be staying on as an assistant hockey coach too.

Nothing to do with parents from what I heard.

Centennial's had an outstanding youth hockey program for years. As long as thats in place, its a good head start for a HS coach.

I couldn't agree with that statement more. You look at the well established youth programs and you look at the high school teams that have dominated their conference or section... it's not a coincidence. It's unfortunate that there are plenty of youth associations that have good numbers and good talent but the association hasn't put the pieces together to have a successful program.

I couldn't agree more, a big lose to the girls game, but best wishes to both.

One note about Cent position, if Coach Diggins is staying on as an asst, that may create some challenges for someone from outside the program to come in and take ownership of the team. My guess is they must have someone from within the program they feel comfortable with taking over the team, who will be able to work well with the former coach.

Well then my guess is that it would be Domschot...those 2 have been together a long time...I think.

Melvin44 · Post by **Melvin44** » Sun Mar 14, 2010 9:44 pm

The assistant Mark Domschot would be an excellent choice. WBL missed out when he turned down the position. He knows the game very well. He is great with the players and he will help from youth on up which is huge.

I've talked with him many times and love how he promotes his players. Knows many college coaches.

ghshockeyfan · Post by **ghshockeyfan** » Tue Mar 16, 2010 9:27 am

With at least 2 MIAC Women's jobs currently open I'd expect we may see some (top?) HS coaches taking these positions...
