2021 Coach Development Groups

March 2, 2021

Congrats to all the BC Coaches who were selected to be apart of the 2021 Coach Development Groups. From Swimming Canada’s High Performance Director, John Atkinson “These groups are very important for the present and future of coaching in the current era of sport, not only in Canada, but in world swimming. We have had these coaching development groups running since 2014 and they are a targeted approach to development. We are looking to work with coaches who understand situations, work in a positive way with partners and then make any situation work for them and use that in developing their athletes and clubs. We also look at how coaches respond to situations, how they look to thrive and be leaders in a positive way, being solution focused.”
