I started swimming competitively when I was 10 years old, with both WRASA and PSW. Since then, I have qualified for swimming provincials, and as well as one summer with water polo. My favorite/ best events to swim are, the 50m and 100m free, as well as 100m back, and 50m back, in the winter. When I am not swimming I enjoy, spending time with my family, playing with my dog, and reading.

INTERESTED IN BEING A VOLUNTEER OR COACH?


Sunfish takes great pride in our coaching staff.  We believe we have one of the strongest and most dedicated coaching team in BCSSA.

Our coaches are top swimmers in BCSSA and BC Highschool Sports and excel in their respective sports as well. They know how to coach because they know how to compete and because Sunfish provides continual support and mentorship! In addition to being great athletes, every Sunfish coach brings their own set of credentials whether they are certified through NCCP National Coaching levels and/or Life Saving BC certification. Many Sunfish coaches also began as Little Fishy swimmers/players who can relate to our membership and show them their passion and dedication to the sport and their coaching growth from starting as a volunteer to turning into one of our junior/senior coaches.

If you are interested in being a Coach, send an email to [email protected] and take the first step by volunteering in the program!
