Tom PeartThomas H. Peart is a born-and-bred Midwesterner, an ex-US Marine, and a veteran coach of hockey, softball, football, and soccer with a career spanning thirty-seven years. In his native Minnesota, he spent twenty-one years coaching girls' and boys' hokey, twelve years coaching college hockey for men and women, and three coaching senior women, before moving to England to coach professional men's hockey for a year. His time coaching has always served as inspiration for him, in his life and his writing. He began sharing stories of his coaching on Facebook during the COVID-19 pandemic, sparking his inspiration for this project. As a member of several hockey coaching associations from the local to the national level and with over fifty years of playing and coaching hockey under his belt, he hopes these stories will serve to inspire others interested in coaching.
