Meet the U9MD Coach!
SKMHA is pleased to announce Kyle Lang as the U9MD Head Coach for the 2026-2027 Season.

Kyle’s journey through the game is defined by a deep-rooted connection to the Chatham-Kent hockey community.

He developed his skills within the Tilbury Minor Hockey system and the Chatham Cyclones AAA program. His Junior career was marked by leadership and persistence, competing for the Junior C Wheatley Sharks and the Junior B Chatham Maroons. He continued his competitive career at the post-secondary level, suiting up for both the St. Clair College Saints and the University of Windsor Lancers.

Transitioning from player to mentor, Kyle’s focus shifted toward youth development within the South Kent Lightning organization. Currently serving as the Assistant Coach for the U9 MD2 team, Kyle is dedicated to passing on the lessons he learned throughout his own hockey journey. He is focused on building strong fundamentals, fostering a ‘team-first’ mentality, and ensuring the next generation develops the same lifelong passion for the sport that began for him in Tilbury decades ago.
