We are a group of keen 9-13 year-olds who work hard, but we also have a lot of fun! The Devo program follows the Sport Canada — Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) model. We are “Learning to Train” and “Training to Train,” and we learn about racing as a personal challenge. This means that we look at racing as a process where we prepare, participate, support our teammates, and after we race we reflect.

Devos are led by Coach Tim McGrady and Assistant Coach Berend Henckel. If you have Devo questions, contact Tim tim@mcgrady.ca or Berend bhenckel@telus.net. This year we are lucky to have Laura and Don Johnston along with Rupert Wong assistant coaching.
