I was introduced to the sport of wrestling by my grade 9 football coach. I took to the sport of wrestling like a fish to water. After a successful high school wrestling career, winning several championships, my wrestling ended when I graduated high school.  Years later, I was looking for a sport that my children could join, and I found wrestling again. The sport teaches so much about yourself, fosters teamwork and life skills that will proved valuable over and over again.  I have coached my children for the last 7 years from my club, New Tec.  I came to the realization that my children’s skills were advancing beyond my ability to keep up, so I enrolled them at K-Bay Athletic and Wrestling Club where they worked under Head Coach, Nick Cryer and his staff.  This move to K-Bay provided my son with a wealth of coaching experience which enabled my son to work his way to the podium at the Canadian Nationals Wrestling Championships where he was awarded a Bronze Medal.
