A Cochrane Minor Hockey Association (CMHA) U13 AA head coach is in hot water after slinging profanities towards a referee at a local hockey game that took place on Sunday.
In a video on X (formerly Twitter), CMHA head coach Joel Litt-Jukes is seen shouting profanities at a referee over a soft tipping call towards the end of the first period, at a hockey match between the Bow Valley Timberwolves and the Red Deer Wesco Chiefs that took place at the SLS Centre on Jan. 7. The Timberwolves lost 4-11.
In a discipline report by the South Central Alberta Hockey League, it outlined that Litt-Jukes is suspended for gross misconduct and will be available to return for their next game against the Wheatland Braves.
According to the CMHA website, Litt-Jukes was coaching for four years. It added that he also competed in the AA and AAA level in Saskatchewan as a minor hockey league player.
