The New Hampshire Junior Monarchs are thrilled to announce the hiring of John Sikich as co-Head Coach of the 2009 Tier 1 team and Head Coach of the 2011 AAA team for the 2021-2022 season.

John Sikich, originally from Hermosa Beach, CA, moved to NH in 2017 with his wife and four boys. John played tier hockey on multiple travel teams in Chicago, IL and Los Angeles, CA until he was 18 years old when he became a Deputy Sheriff with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. 

In 2005, John began his professional coaching career with the Los Angeles Jr. Kings Organization in El Segundo, CA where he acted as Head and Assistant Coach for teams at the Tier I, II and III levels. Nelson Emerson, Head of Player Development for the Los Angeles Kings in the National Hockey League said, “As the head of player development, skill development is paramount when competing at the highest level. Former Los Angeles Jr Kings coach, and my friend, John Sikich, has been developing players for the Jr Kings for the past 15 years. His experience, dedication and training style are why I whole heartedly recommend him for your development as a player.”

John considers himself lucky to have been part of a program that gave him training and coaching education by coaches who are currently in the NHL, as well as, International Power Skating Instructors and fellow coaches whom he is honored to say he worked with. John’s past experience has allowed him to pass on his knowledge to his players through personal on ice training sessions, group skills, and power skating camps. Robby Glantz, Power Skating Coach and On-Air Skills and Skating Consultant for the NHL Network stated, “Speed is a skill that can be developed and enhanced with proper technique and practice... With that said, I highly recommend John Sikich, who has Instructed at many of my camps throughout the last 18+ years...He consistently does an excellent job teaching all ages and skill levels and I am more than confident that he has the experience, knowledge and ability to positively impact your player’s Hockey and Skating abilities!!”

John’s most recent accomplishments include heading player development for the Back Bay Indians as the Director of Youth Hockey and Head Coach for the 10U and 12U team. In 2020 John’s 10U team went undefeated and secured Championship titles in GSL and SHL. When asked John said, “I could not be more proud of all the players at Back Bay for their hard work and dedication to skill development. From Learn to Skate to our 18U Split Season team, everyone has improved.”

John has chosen to step away from Directing and focus more on player development as a Coach with the Junior Monarchs. John will be coaching the Monarchs 2009 Tier I EHF team and the 2011 AAA team for the 2021-2022 season, as well as assisting with specialty camps and clinics throughout the season.

The Junior Monarchs lost one of the BEST in the business on Monday, October 5th.  Ryan Frew was a phenomenal man and had a profound impact on numerous Junior Monarchs Players.  Ryan most importantly was an amazing husband and father, and was adored by his parents, brothers and all family and friends who knew him. He was  truly  a special one of a kind  person.   Please keep the entire Frew Family in your thoughts and prayers.  We love you Ry!
