Andrew Skuza Bio
I am a lifelong hockey lover and player, a middle school teacher, and a dad of two boys. From my earliest years growing up in LaSalle/Windsor, Ontario I’ve been on the ice, and I started coaching hockey in Halton Hills in 2021. Both of my boys are in the Thunder family, and it’s been a joy to share my passion with them, bonding over hockey, getting to watch them grow and develop, and cultivate their own love for the game. Through this experience in Halton Hills, I’ve met a number of tremendous families, made impactful friendships with other parents, and had the opportunity to coach a number of exceptional young players. I enjoy the grind that coaching a rep hockey team brings, and I am excited every time I go to the rink. Having the fortunate opportunity of being around young passionate players who would ‘go through a wall’ for their team, inspires me to continue the journey of challenging myself to be a better coach and person, every day.

I’m thrilled to be a head coach for the Halton Hills Thunder!
I grew up in Quesnel, B.C., a small town similar to Georgetown, playing all kinds of sports with my friends and cousins. Coincidentally, my minor hockey team was called the Thunder! I then played junior hockey for the Vancouver Giants in the WHL before moving on to play professionally for 12 seasons in the AHL, ECHL, and various leagues across Europe. My playing career took me to places like Newfoundland, Chicago, Alaska, Germany, Italy, and the UK. However, it was my time in Toronto playing for the Marlies that ultimately led me to call Southern Ontario home.
While I’ve always been involved in coaching through summer hockey schools and skill sessions, my official coaching journey began three seasons ago with the U8MD Thunder. Since then, I’ve been an assistant coach every season, supporting the team both on and off the ice, while gaining valuable experience and honing my coaching skills.
My coaching philosophy centres on good habits, effort, attitude, and teamwork. More than just developing hockey players, my goal is to help kids grow into confident, hardworking individuals by instilling the work ethic, character, and resilience that hockey has taught me.
Though my family and I have only lived in Georgetown for about five years, we’ve developed a strong connection with the community and the Halton Hills Minor Hockey Association. I look forward to contributing my experience to this community and HHMH by creating an environment where our players can develop, succeed, and achieve their full potential.

Trevor Brodie - Bio
I am currently an assistant coach for the U10A Thunder team, as well as an assistant coach for the U8 Tier 1 Thunder team.
Prior to my 4 years coaching in Halton, I volunteered for 12 years as an assistant coach with the Guelph Giants, a special needs hockey team. Here I worked with a wide range of ages and skill levels to build hockey skills and knowledge, as well as a love for the game.
For 16 years, I was a golf professional working at the top private and public golf courses in Canada. Throughout this time, I taught over 10,000 lessons to kids and adults in group and individual settings. I independently planned and ran junior clinics, and coached a junior team each year.
I developed a passion for hockey at an early age. Once I was at the rink it was tough to get me off the ice. I’ve played organized hockey for over 35 years, including Junior hockey in Erin. I’ve always been focused on being a lifelong learner and on continuous growth. I am excited for the challenges ahead.
