Nadine

Primary Coach

Nadine began playing ultimate for her high school in 2005, captaining in 2007, and went on to become a community coach for the school (2 seasons) and a recreational player/captain with the Newmarket Ultimate Frisbee League early in university (3 seasons). Entering the touring scene in 2009 as a pick-up player, she made a serious commitment to touring from 2010 - 2015. Having played with teams from Nipissing University, North Bay, Guelph/Waterloo, and Toronto (Zen, Lotus, and Union), she has experience playing with and against high calibre players from Ontario, Quebec, BC, and the USA. In Toronto she also spent 2 years as the Social Committee Chair for the Toronto Ultimate Club.

After being sidelined by an ACL injury in 2015, Nadine has been on hiatus as a player, focusing on recovery and professional development after moving to Squamish, BC. She was introduced to the VUL as a team mentor in 2016, and has gone back to her recreational roots with plans to tour again.

With a background in physical education her coaching philosophy focuses on a holistic approach, including physical literacy, functional training, mindfulness, and inclusivity.
