About Coach Phil

Phil Oreskovic, a proud Brampton native, began his hockey journey with figure skating at age 3 before joining the Brampton Maroons. He went on to play junior hockey for the Brampton Battalion, where he was selected 15th overall in the first round of the OHL Draft. Known for his tough, stay-at-home defensive style, Phil was drafted by the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 3rd round of the 2005 NHL Draft (82nd overall) and made his NHL debut in 2009. He played professionally across multiple leagues and eventually returned home to Brampton, finishing his career with the Brampton Beast of the ECHL as both a player and coach.

Frequently Asked Questions

The program description says it’s free and no registration is required—is that correct?
Yes! This program is completely free and no advance registration is required. Simply show up at the scheduled location and time with your equipment to participate.
Is there a minimum skill level required to join Youth Sport Development programs?
No, all skill levels are welcome! These programs are designed to support beginners as well as those looking to build on their existing skills in a fun and inclusive environment.

What’s the difference between recreation programs and minor sports teams?
Recreation programs are a great place to start! They're designed for all skill levels and focus on learning the basics, having fun and staying active in a welcoming environment.
Minor sports teams are more advanced. These programs are run by affiliated community groups and offer structured training, team practices, and competitive play. They're a great next step for kids who want to take their skills to the next level and commit to a sport more seriously.
How do I check if a program session is cancelled?
Program sessions may be cancelled when weather conditions make outdoor rinks unsafe or unusable. Before attending, please check the most up‑to‑date rink and outdoor facility status available on the City of Brampton Outdoor Skating webpage.
Parent and guardian supervision requirements
Children under 10 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian (14 years of age or older) at all times. When attending a registered program, a parent or guardian must remain in the building for the duration. This requirement does not apply to programs exceeding two consecutive hours.
