Episode 9 | In this episode of The Scratching Post, host Arthur Ward sits down with Brandy West-McMaster, the interim head coach of the Regina Cougars women's hockey team and the 2024-25 Canada West Coach of the Year.
Brandy reflects on her journey from player to coach, discussing the evolution of the game, her coaching philosophy, and the importance of relationship-building with her players. She shares insights on how the team's preseason trip to Finland strengthened their bond and contributed to their success in making the post-season.
