Thunder head coach resigns after troublesome season
The Drayton Valley Thunder are once again without a head coach, as the team struggles to regroup after a dreadful 20th season.
Ryan Rechner is out as head coach of the team, the second departure of that nature this season. There have been five Thunder coaches to leave the team since the 2015-2016 season.
In a post to his Twitter account Monday night Rechner said, “Thank you everyone for supporting me on my journey this year. I regret to inform you I’ve resigned effective immediately as Head Coach.”
Thunder President and Governor Monte Waronek says they hope to be a contender come next year, adding that this past season has been difficult.
