Cal Aasman was born and raised in Medicine Hat. A product of the great tradition of Rep hockey teams such as the Bantam Elks and Cablevision Tigers, Cal played a short stint with the Spokane Chiefs (WHL) and the Minot Americans (SJHL) and concluded his playing career as a blueliner for 2 seasons with the Junior B Cubs. Cal has coached at a number of levels in Medicine Hat and recently completed the High Performance 1 Coaching Seminar through Hockey Alberta. Cal has spent the past 7 seasons away from coaching enjoying watching his son, Logan, play rep hockey in Medicine Hat and most recently, completing his Junior career playing 3 seasons for the WHL’s Everett Silvertips. Now that Cal’s kids have moved away to further their education, Logan (University of Lethbridge) and Kayleigh (SAIT), he wants to give back to the game that has given him so much. Cal is extremely excited at the opportunity of joining the SEAC Team by coaching the AAA Bantams and wants to express a huge “Thank You” to his wife, Cheryl, who supported his decision to return to the bench! Lastly, Cal was largely inspired to play and coach the game of hockey by his big brother, Tony Aasman, and dedicates the 2016/17 season to his memory.
