Hide AdA spokesman said: "Barry has been particularly strong and publicly vocal in challenging issues around facilities and funding in order to remove barriers to hockey and protect the sport."
Cawte said: “From the moment I set foot in Scotland I have received nothing but support from everyone across the hockey landscape. I believe the team and board in place will continue to make massive strides. They live and breathe the values that underpin our sport and they have incredibly supportive volunteers right across Scotland.
“The sport is in a rapid upwards trajectory and the foundations are in place for the sport to Excel as One Team for years to come."
