"I’m looking forward to not only<br />

working with our highly impressive<br />

juniors across the country, but even<br />

more so working with their fantastic<br />

coaches, whether they be seasoned<br />

campaigners, or new on the scene.<br />

Our coaching community as a<br />

whole needs to be embraced and<br />

worked with so they can continue to<br />

produce great athletes. I hope I can<br />

provide any help that they may need<br />

to progress their learning as well<br />

as their athletes development. I’m<br />

sure they all have something that I<br />

can learn from too."<br />
