Coach Zakk
We are deeply saddened to announce that Coach Zakk Gurchin passed away on Sunday February 23rd after a long battle with cancer. We would like to extend our deepest condolences to Zakk’s wife McKenna, his children Bennett and Scotlynn, family, friends and his East Lambton U15B team.


Zakk and his good friend Calvin Ritchie joined East Lambton this past summer as coaching staff for the U15B team. Zakk quickly became a friend and mentor to the boys. He was an amazing coach, sharing his love of the game with the boys, and teaching them many life lessons along the way. He will be greatly missed by many. There will be a celebration of life for Zakk on March 9th from 1-4pm at the Alvinston Arena.
