New Coach, Fresh Strategy

The Cornwall Colts Appoint New Head Coach Ahead of the Season

The Cornwall Colts have named Lajoie as their new head coach, following a significant turnover in the team last season. Lajoee, who previously worked with the Cumberland Jr. Grads U15 AA team and the Eastern Ontario Wild U15 AAA team, first began his coaching career a decade ago. He is succeeding Grant Cooper, a Colts' alumnus, who took over the head coach role in 2025-26. Lajie's vision is a strong commitment to defensive responsibility across the board and a strong emphasis on a modern attack strategy. He also aims for a stronger presence in the community off ice. The team's main training camp ended earlier this week, with LajoIE praising returning players and the rookies on the 2026-27 roster.
