Our Coaches and Board Members
Unlocking Potential, One Session at a Time
Our volunteer board members and coaches are the heart of our club. Their leadership, dedication, and passion drive our success—providing strong governance, fostering community, and guiding our athletes with skill and enthusiasm. Together, they create a supportive, fun, and engaging environment for everyone involved.
Volunteer with Club
The Peterborough Pirates Triathlon Club runs on volunteers. There are lots of ways to contribute from board members, committee members, coaching, or helping with events, we can use a hand.
Coaching
It is all about the coaches. Lead Coaches, or assistant coaches are critical to the club. A coach decides on the plan for training and learning for each session and ensure its implemented in a fun way. Ultimately they are responsible for the group safety but also that the youth are having fun.
A lead coach is supported by the head coach who provides resources and direction to them.
We can always use assistant coaches if you do not want to take on the full responsibility. Assistant coaches are useful in helping during practice or filling in when a lead coach is away. This is a less commitment approach to helping out.
Board and Committee Members
We have a number of board positions that provide the overall club organization and keep the club operational. We meet a few times a years (skipping most of the summer) and terms are 2-3 years. Overall effort varies based on the position and time of year. There is a surprising amount of work to be done each year for the club to be successful.
A good group of people sharing the work, makes it fun, rewarding, and no single position is overbearing.
