WENATCHEE, Wash. – The Wenatchee Wild and the Wenatchee Wild Tier 1 Hockey Program, proud members of the Western Hockey League (WHL), are excited to announce that Jarrod Boman will return as 14U Head Coach, while Spencer White has been promoted to 15O Head Coach for the upcoming 2025-2026 season.

Boman has been with the Wild organization since August 2022 and recently completed his first full season as 14U Head Coach. Prior to this role, he served as an assistant coach with the CSSHL 16U and 18U teams for the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 seasons.

A Portland, Oregon native now residing in Wenatchee, WA, Boman played junior hockey in the former Western States Hockey League before transitioning to officiating. He went on to have an impressive 15-year career as a WHL official, working 362 games—the most by any American official in league history. His experience and leadership have been instrumental in guiding young players through their development in the Wild program.

Spencer White steps into the 15O Head Coach role after serving as the 14U and 15O Assistant Coach this past season. A Wenatchee Wild Tier 1 alumnus, White played for the program from 2015 to 2020, progressing from the 14U team to a two-year tenure on the 18U roster. During his time with the Wild AAA program, he was a regular alternate captain and helped lead his teams to multiple state championships.

After graduating from the Wild program, White played two seasons of junior hockey in the Eastern Hockey League (EHL) with the New Jersey 87s. His junior career highlights include helping the team win an EHL regular-season title (2020-21), a South Division championship, and an EHL playoff championship the following year.
