For the 2024/25 season the CSSHL is proud to introduce the Staff of the Month Award for the three different CSSHL divisions: Eastern, West Female, and West Male.

This award is aimed at recognizing the incredible staff within the CSSHL and acknowledges their hard work, dedication, commitment, leadership and impact on the game both on and off the ice.

We would like to congratulate these three staff members, who were all nominated by their programs, for their hard work in the month of January.

East Division – Kayla VandeKemp, Manuela Alvarez, Matt Brown, and Steven Lam, Fort Erie International Academy

“Behind every successful student-athlete is a team of dedicated professionals working tirelessly to ensure they can perform at their best, both on and off the field. At FEIA, our athletic therapist staff plays a vital role in keeping our student-athletes safe, healthy, and ready to compete. Our incredible team includes Kayla VandeKemp, Manuela Alvarez, Matt Brown, and Steven Lam.

From early mornings to late nights, and through long road trips, their commitment knows no bounds. They are there every step of the way鈥攑roviding injury prevention strategies, managing recovery programs, and offering constant support to our athletes. Their expertise and care extend beyond just treating injuries; they focus on educating our athletes about health and wellness to ensure long-term success.

Whether it鈥檚 taping an ankle, responding swiftly during a game, or guiding a player through a rehab process, their dedication is unmatched. They are the unsung heroes behind every moment of growth in our program. To our athletic therapist team, thank you for your endless hours, energy, and passion for what you do. Your hard work doesn鈥檛 go unnoticed, and we are deeply grateful for the impact you make in the lives of our student-athletes every day.”

West Female Division – Jason Chimera, OHA Edmonton

“On January 5th, 2024 Hockey Alberta granted OHA Edmonton a female team. On March 10th, Randall Weber announced Jason Chimera as the coach of the inaugural OHA Edmonton Female Prep team. On the weekend of April 12-14, OHA Edmonton hoisted their first ever female ID camp. In these short windows, Jason has built a very strong team for the inaugural year. Since the team selection and through the start of the season the team has been quite competitive with a current record of 14-8-1, which is good for 9th place in the CSSHL. This is quite a feat considering that 10 players are in their first year at the U18 level. Additionally, with only 5 graduating players, Jason has built a solid foundation for the future and continued success of the program. These accomplishments are a result of Jasons high work ethic, high standards and high level of care for his student athletes.”

West Male Division – Jessie Leung, Okanagan Hockey Academy

“Jessie Leung has demonstrated exceptional leadership and coaching prowess, making him an outstanding candidate for the CSSHL Coach of the Month. Under his guidance, the U17 Prep team has achieved a perfect 4-0 record this month. Jessie鈥檚 meticulous attention to detail in game reports, family communications, and game strategies has been instrumental in the team鈥檚 success. In December, he further showcased his expertise by contributing to the Team Canada U18 Female Development team, highlighting his versatility and commitment to developing young athletes. Jessie鈥檚 dedication to excellence both on and off the ice makes him a deserving nominee for this recognition.”
