Coaching at OFC combines some of Chris’ favorite things in life, soccer, leadership and working with kids.  In his career Chris leads teams and has a Masters degree focused on leadership.  On the field in addition to his grassroots badges he has his UEFA C License through the Football Association of Wales and is currently working on the next step in his coaching learning and is enrolled in the CONCACAF/Canadian Soccer Association B License program over the next 12 months.

Living abroad in several countries during his younger years the love for soccer Chris had as a player, playing representative soccer for a smaller city in Alberta and participating in provincials, developed into an obsession.  It’s a poorly hidden secret that he plans family vacations to ensure they see a soccer game on every trip – ideally involving his own favorite club Crystal Palace.

Outside of soccer Chris and his wife Lori have two daughters and love living in the Okanagan and being a part of this fantastic community.
