Frank Serratore (born August 24, 1957) is an American ice hockey coach, currently with the Air Force Falcons men's ice hockey team. He formerly coached professional hockey in the International Hockey League with the Minnesota Moose from 1994 to 1996.

Serratore played two seasons with the St. Paul Vulcans of the Midwest Junior Hockey League and later joined the Western Michigan Broncos men's ice hockey program while earning his degree in physical education and athletic administration. He also had a short stint with the Nashville South Stars of the Central Hockey League in 1981–82.

Serratone began his coaching career in 1982 with the Austin Mavericks (later the Rochester Mustangs) of the United States Hockey League. After five successful seasons, he moved on become an assistant coach with the University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux for two seasons. He then returned to the USHL for one season as head coach and general manager of the Omaha Lancers. During his time in the USHL, Serratore won three league championships. In 1990, Serratore was hired as the head coach of the University of Denver Pioneers and spent four seasons behind their bench.

Serratore made the jump to professional hockey in 1994 when he was hired as the head coach and director of hockey operations of the Minnesota Moose, an expansion team in the International Hockey League. The Moose lasted only two seasons in Minnesota before relocating to Winnipeg, Manitoba. Serratore remained with the Manitoba Moose as director of hockey operations for one season, but Jean Perron was brought by the new ownership group to replace him as head coach.
