All families who have signed this petition strongly encourage the AMHA to ensure that John Carpenter is given a Bantam LL team to coach for the 2017-18 season. The signees have all had at least one season with the privilege of John coaching the respective boys/girls and were very happy and impressed with the job that John did. A coach of John’s calibre is a true asset to Ayr Minor Hockey and after being on the sidelines this past season, it would be a huge disappointment for all of us if he is not given a local league team to coach for next season.

Liam has had the privilege to have John as his coach for several hockey seasons. We credit John's coaching with helping to instill confidence in Liam at a critical time and teaching him to work in a team setting. I strongly support seeing John as Bantam LL coach next year!

John was a phenomenal coach for Jesse. He made Jesse feel special on a team he was not all that comfortable being part of. He took Jesse under his wing and instilled confidence in him after his confidence and love for the sport was deminished. He was there to pick the kids up when they had a bad game and direct them as needed. Although he was not the head coach at this time he should have been and would have brought so much to the game for them. He is fun, and the kids respect him. Please consider him as a local league coach for 2017/18.

John was an amazing coach to Tanner and all of the boys. We would strongly encourage AMHA to give John the Bantam Local League team next year.

My son Brandon remembers John as being one of the best coaches that he's ever had, we'd be happy to have him coach Brandon again.

I support John Carpenter as Bantam Local League Coach. John has an amazing ability to motivate children and teach the sport in a fun and supportive way. John is great coach and mentor for our kids. But I really feel the Bantam LL level with 1 large team is ineffective. AMHA should axe the AE level (There wasnt really an AE level anyways) and use these AE kids to make 2 decent LL Bantam teams, instead of 1 overpopulated, uncompetitive team.

My kids have been fortunate enough to be coached by John. I definitely think it's a shame if he doesn't get a team. Not only should he be coaching a team but be part of the AMHA board.

John coached Josh 2 years ago and just the confidence alone he gave to Josh has done wonders for him not only in hockey but in life. Strong recommendation from me!!
