🥳 Congratulations to Barb Beck, our SSBC Recreational Coach of the Year recipient! Barb always leads with patience, understanding, and kindness in her approach to building new skaters’ confidence on the ice and in learning to skate. Barb's continual work at the Port Coquitlam Lightning Speed Skating Club's recruitment has added 5-10 new skaters per season, over the last two years the total has grown from 23 to 55 skaters. Through countless years of dedication, Barb spends 9 hours per week coaching and ensuring skaters are welcome and part of the club. Congratulations, Barb! 🙏
