2012 TESTIMONIALS
“the convention was a great experience”
Michael Owens (Brampton, ON)
“my coaching colleagues and I weren’t sure how you would top last years event in terms of quality and breadth. Somehow you did. In fact the balance of fundamentals, systems and coaching principles was perfect. See you next year!”
Mark Pankow (Smith Falls, ON)
“I was there for the 1st day only – very impressive re: the number of attendees the number exhibitors and the quality of the presenters!”
Sonny Wolfe (Montreal, QC)
“thank you to CFC and Football Canada for organizing an awesome convention”
Roger Richer (Ajax, ON) Ajax High School
“I thought it was GREAT! My favorite speakers were Sonny Wolfe, Jim Barker and the OLine Coach of the Ti-Cats (Doug Malone).”
Gord Gallimore (Mississauga, ON) Mississauga Warriors – OVFL
“I was at the Nike Clinic in Las Vegas earlier this year and hands down, the FCCA Convention is better”
Brian Guebert (Saskatoon, SK) Football Saskatchewan
“Attending the 2012 FCCA Convention was a great experience and I would highly recommend it to coaches of all levels. There were excellent presentations made by influential and knowledgeable coaches from the OVFL, CIS, CFL and even the NFL. I learned a great deal by attending the Convention and I walked away from the experience as a better and more informed coach.”
Matt Kassner (Ottawa, ON) OVFL – Myers Riders JV head coach / Ottawa Gee Gees
“It was fantastic to see the large turnout for the FCCA Conference in Burlington, ON. Seeing so many coaches committed to ongoing learning and professional development is a great sign for football players in Canada and for the game as a whole. The commitment demonstrated by Football Canada to coach education by offering the NCCP Safe Contact module for free to all coaches is also to be commended. Great speakers. Lots of opportunity to network and to learn. Great event.”
Neale Gillespie
Coaching Consultant, Policy Development | Conseiller en entraînement, élaboration des politiques
“All our coaches enjoyed their experience at the FCCA convention. We have a better knowledge of several technical and tactical aspects of football. Thank you very much for this opportunity.”
