Lethbridge Hurricanes Hockey Club announced today that Trevor Hardy has become
the organizations new Strength and Conditioning Coach on a two-year
agreement.

with the Hurricanes in the same capacity from 1996 to 2004 helping the
Hurricanes to the Memorial Cup during the 1996-1997 season. Hardy has worked
with many great former ‘Canes including Rob Klinkhammer and Dale Purinton among
others. He is a member of the Lethbridge Sports Hall of Fame.

Manager, Peter Anholt says he’s excited to have Hardy back on board, “Trevor has
come highly recommended through many people in, not only the Lethbridge
community, but also the hockey community. He has a proven track record of
working with many teams and individuals.”
“Off-ice conditioning
continues to come to the forefront. This will be a process; a marathon, not a
sprint. It will entail both out of season conditioning and in season. Both are
very important to the success of any team,” continued Anholt. “We are always
trying to improve our program. Trevor has worked with our hockey club in past
years and we are very excited about welcoming him back.”
Hardy, who is the
owner/operator of Hard Training, says he’s looking forward to the opportunity,
“I’m very happy to meet and to begin working with the players and to help create
the healthiest, most development sports culture in junior hockey.”
“We
want to create the highest level of success and that means using time as
affectively as possible. We want [the players] to have every possible resource
to improve as much as possible [from] strength training, nutrition and
psychology,” added Hardy.
Hardy has already begun
working with Hurricane players.
