Tammy Allin
As an elementary school teacher in Halton for 17 years, and a community coach in a variety of sports, Tammy knows the importance of creating a safe and inclusive learning environment where athletes are comfortable taking risks, asking questions, and feel valued.
Her coaching philosophy places a large emphasis on building player confidence and their understanding of the game, while fostering meaningful relationships within the family community of the team. Her students will say that her motto is “practice makes progress”, as she believes equal opportunities for all athletes is the best way to achieve individual and therefore team growth. As a parent of two active children in sport, she feels that coaching is her opportunity to give back, providing a platform to support the growth of young people within our community.
