Murray Carter Memorial


Murray Carter was a longtime coach in Rotary Hockey who exhibited the ideals of fair play and good sportsmanship.
Based on those qualities, Rotary Hockey selects a coach of the year for each age division from U6 (formerly tyke) through U14 (formerly minor bantam), and from that group chooses the Murray Carter Memorial Award winner as the Rotary Hockey junior division coach of the year.
