Welcome to the GMS High Performance Hockey Academy Page ! Please check the News and Announcements Tab regularly for important , time sensitive information !
Good Bye & Thank-You
It is with mixed emotions that I am writing this letter to announce that I will no longer be part of the GMS High Performance Hockey Academy. I will still be at GMS next year and for the foreseeable future so I will see current students in the halls or other classes. Hockey Academy will still be offered at GMS I will just not be part of it moving forward. Sometimes in life choices have to be made and changes need to happen, and this is one of those times.
 
I want to extend an immeasurable amount of gratitude to Jamie Robinson for giving me the opportunity to start the academy 12 years ago, to my former teaching partner (who started the academy with me) Anthony Greer for always being there to have my back, and to Scott Parker for all of his personal support and unwaivering support of the academy since he arrived at GMS. I also want to express a big thank-you to the many parent volunteers who have assisted us over the years in a variety of ways so the kids could have this opportunity.
 
I have so many wonderful memories and connections with kids and parents in the West Kelowna Minor Hockey community and I am thankful and proud to have had the opportunity to build the program on the west side and to dedicate over half my teaching career to our shared passion for the game of hockey and helping kids be successful. I will greatly miss going to the rink with the kids & pushing them to find their next level as athletes, but most of all, I will miss connecting with them and helping guide them through this tricky time of their life that is middle school.
 
The mission statement for the academy is, and always has been, about helping kids develop into strong citizens, good teammates and good people. I will so miss seeing them accomplish this as they change and grow over the years at GMS and also hearing about their successes in school, hockey and life after they leave here.   
 
Change happens, it is inevitable, and then new challenges present themselves. I just wanted to take a minute to say thank-you to each and every one of you who have supported myself and this program over the years. From the bottom of my heart thank-you !
 
Keep your stick on the ice !
