BACKGROUND

Coach Richardson and Coaching staff have a long established teaching ideology.

They seek to connect with young people with post secondary institutions to pursue their dreams of university or college education and to play their chosen sport.

All coaches have lived and experienced navigating and overcoming the hurdles and barriers to achieving an academic degree in the face of adversity.

Now the coaches want to help young people achieve the possible, play the sport they love and to nourish their minds for their adult life at the same time.
