Between 2008 and-2014 Jason was Canada’s Age Group Triathlon World Championship Team Coach. He has a Bachelors in Physical Education with a focus in Sport Performance and is also an NCCP coaching course facilitator and coach evaluator.

EVENING SWIM COACH
KEVIN CLark
BIO COMING SOON!
We have been privileged to have Marc coach the STARRT swim program since 2017. In 2023, he stepped back from regular coaching duties, but he continues to lend his expertise to our swimmers on an as-needed basis.
Marc's first few years with STARRT involved working with the evening group, and then he took on responsibility for the morning swim program. His swimmers would agree that Marc's easy manner, technical swimming knowledge, and encouraging coaching style made turning up at the pool three times a week - in the depths of winter or at the crack of dawn - worth it!
Marc is a supportive and inspirational coach and STARRT is proud to have him on board.
