WARHOUNDS ANNOUNCE ASSISTANT COACH TOM PRATT

July 29, 2025-Gaylord, MI

The Northern Michigan Warhounds are proud to announce the addition of Tom Pratt to the coaching staff as Assistant Coach for the upcoming 2025–26 season.

Pratt, a familiar face in the Gaylord sports community, brings a wealth of experience and deep local roots to the Warhounds bench. He previously coached at the semi-pro level with Gaylord’s former MIHL team and has years of multi-sport coaching experience under his belt. Known not only for his hockey knowledge but also for his ability to develop and connect with athletes, Pratt’s addition signals a major step forward for the Warhounds’ culture and on-ice performance.

“Having someone local like Tom join our coaching staff is huge for the Warhounds,” said Warhounds owner Andrew Dibble. “He’s an integral part of the Gaylord community, and his experience and connection to the area will make a big impact both on and off the ice.”

The Warhounds are committed to building a strong team culture rooted in Northern Michigan pride, and Pratt’s hiring reinforces that mission. Fans can expect to see him behind the bench this October as the Warhounds hit the ice for their inaugural season.
