Doug Brown - Head of Athlete Performance

With over 12,000 hours of coaching experience, Doug has spent the last twelve years working as a full-time developmental coach.  Doug’s background both as a hockey coach and a strength and conditioning coach gives him a unique perspective when it comes to athlete development.  Over the past two years while coaching full-time, he has been working on completing a Master’s in High Performance Coaching and Technical Leadership through UBC (projected to graduate in 2019).  A desire to deepen his understanding of how to develop athletes more effectively led him into his Master’s studies which has challenged his beliefs and developed his coaching ability greatly.

Over the last 12 years Doug has been able to work with a diverse portfolio of developmental and elite performance athletes and teams—from World Cup of Rugby athletes, professional hockey and football players, to multiple U-Sports athletes from multiple sports as well as team and academy training and coaching.

Doug is a professional coach who is passionate about developing elite, well-rounded athletes and people.  He has a strong background in hockey (especially on the defensive end) and enjoys all sport.  He thoroughly enjoys watching the athletes and coaches he works with move on with success in their lives.
