10th Annual National Coaches Week!

National Coaches Week (NCW) is a national, annual event to celebrate and recognize coaches for the invaluable role they play in shaping athletes' lives and fostering a positive sports culture. During this time, we celebrate the tremendous positive impact coaches have on athletes and communities across Canada. It's an opportunity to recognize coaches for the integral role they play by simply saying #ThanksCoach.

A coach provides space and structure for the reflection that is necessary for learning and growth. They help you understand what your values are and where your actions diverge from your values or stated goals. A good coach can help you reconnect with what you love about your life and your sport! Coaches are the people that athletes spend most of their time with. They rely on their coaches for their expertise, guidance, and their judgment about selection for competitions, team and matches. Coaches play other important roles too: they can be mentors and motivators, and they can provide a shoulder to cry on.

Let's take the time to celebrate our coaches!
