Coaches
Kelly Brennan: Coach
Kelly started skating at the Oakville Speed Skating Club in 2002, she competed for a few years before becoming a certified speed skating coach. She has been coaching at the club since 2005, first starting with the learn skate session and now coaches the intermediate session. The most enjoyment she gets from coaching the kids is helping them develop the necessary skills and technique to become a better speed skater, helping them strive to get Personal Bests, and most importantly watching them have fun! And of course always making time for a good game of skate guard tag and asteroids!
Coach Andrew has been a Volunteer Coach for the past 7 years, first as an Assistant Coach then as a Certified Speed Skating Coach. He coaches members in the Oakville Short Track Racing Program and many of the Athletes that he coaches go on to Provincials and Canadian Championships. He devotes countless hours preparing for Practices and travels with skaters to Competitions to help them achieve their personal best during races.
I began speed skating as a coach with the Brampton Club in 1989, and discovered that I LOVE THIS SPORT. I have been involved in many clubs along the way since then, and have been with the Oakville club right from the start as a level 2 certified coach. On the ice, I tend to focus on skating as a life-long sport with emphasis on fun, fitness, and recreation. It has been wonderful to watch the skaters improve, and I feel honoured to be a coach in this club.
