The Colorado Thunderbirds program is pleased to announce the coaching staff for the 2017-2018 season. The Thunderbirds offer the highest level of coaching from top to bottom. We are the proud home of Colorado's first Tier 1 National Championship, the 2010 16U Tier 1 team. 

The Colorado Thunderbirds provide the benchmark of AAA competition for elite players at the 20U, 18U, 16U, 15U, 14U, 13U, 12U, 11U, and 10U levels.  The Thunderbirds are the eleven time defending State Champion at the 16U level and eight time defending State Champion at the 14U level.  The 16U and 14U won the 2016 Rocky Mountain District Championship advancing the teams to the 2016 USA Hockey National Tournament where the 16U team finished in third place.  The 18U team has been to four of the past seven National Tournaments.  The 16U team has been to the National Tournament seven out of the past eleven years.  The 14U team has been to the National Tournament nine of the past ten seasons.  The Thunderbirds are proud members of the RMJHL at the 20U level and the Tier 1 Elite Hockey League at the 18U, 16U, 15U, 14U, 13U, 12U and 11U levels.  

We are proud to be affiliated with the Littleton Hawks, a very strong CCYHL Tier II program.

The Thunderbirds offer an elite group of high level coaches that are committed to each player’s development. Our program offers the training that is needed to establish and maintain an elite developmental track for all Thunderbirds players. The program is structured to provide players the time needed to excel both academically as well as athletically. The foundation of the program is based on the core values of accountability, attitude, effort, respect and trust.
