PROGRAM UPDATES:
VOLUNTEER COACH OF THE WEEK!
Coach Soleil Casseus
Coach Sunnie has been working with athletes in our program for the past two seasons, coaching on the sidelines in our 6th-8th grade league and trying to share what knowledge she has learned so far in the game. She is in her senior year at BCIT-Westampton studying exercise science and kinesiology, running cross country and playing basketball for the Panthers. Next fall she will be continuing her athletic and academic career at Chestnut Hill College running cross country and joining the basketball team. When she is not on the sidelines coaching, she is does either the scorebook or game clock throughout the Sunday helping and giving back in anyway she can.
Thank you Coach Sunnie! We appreciate you and wish you success in your future!
