UNB looking for women’s hockey coach after team reinstated to varsity status
FREDERICTON — The University of New Brunswick is on the hunt for a full-time coach for its women’s varsity hockey team, as the squad returns to varsity status following a 10-year absence and a lengthy battle over human rights.
A recent job posting says the eligible candidate will be responsible for “providing all coaching duties consistent with the operation of a successful inter-university sport program.”
The coach will spend the first several months on student-athlete recruitment, planning and preparation ahead of the season, as the team won’t start competing until the 2018-19 season.
The university downgraded the team to a sports club in 2008, citing funding issues.
