  • Why I’m Not an Olympian, But Here’s How You Could Be Friday, February 10, 2016A very well written article that is a good read for all young athletes out there today. Derek Thiessen was an Outside Hitter for the Trinity Western Spartans from 2009-2015. Check out his website here: http://www.derekthiessen.com/Link to article here:  http://www.derekthiessen.com/not-an-olympian/Why I’m Not an Olympian, But Here’s How You Could Be By Derrick Thiessen Part 1: Let’s Start Here *This is a bit of a long one, so strap in.

  • Summer 2016 - Wednesday, August 17, 2016 Wednesday, August 17, 2016"Hi Lorne.Today really began yesterday when we won vs Italy.  Some surprise perhaps was evidenced but the enormity of what had occurred set in by the time the bus pulled into the village about 11pm.  Glenn addressed the group and congratulated them on making the quarterfinal round.  He gave a rough schedule of practice time (12 noon) and meeting time (6pm) for the next day as well as optional weights in the morning.Behind the scenes Glenn and his staff of Frank Boyer and High Performance Director Julien Boucher arranged for the practice booking, the meeting room booking and transportation.  We then watched on TV the Brazil France match and waited about 30 minutes, until ...

  • Summer 2016 - Monday, August 15, 2016 Monday, August 15, 2016Hi All:Today Canada takes on Italy with a little look over its shoulder for the BRA vs France match. Italy has clinched 1st place in the ‘pool of death’, as the media refer to it. Now if Italy gives Canada a bit of a gift by resting some starters then they could still advance to the final 4. Right now 4 teams are tied with 2-2 win/loss records. 'Loud and Proud', wish them onward and upward!-Lorne
