C.J. Keliher accepted into NCCP Level 4 Program

CJAcademy coach C.J. Keliher was recently accepted into Gymnastics Canada’s NCCP Level 4 coaching certification program. This two year program is offered to a very select group of 30 coaches from across Canada, chosen from women’s and men’s artistic gymnastics, trampoline and tumbling, and rhythmic gymnastics.

 To be considered for the program, coaches need to be working with national high performance athletes, such as Academy gymnasts Matt Gallant and Scott Chandler. Keliher has coached and competed at numerous Nationals and Canada Games and was honoured in 2010 as Gymnastics PEI’s Coach of the Year.

Graduation from the program allows coaches to travel internationally with Team Canada athletes and is the highest coaching level awarded in the country.  Upon completion of the program, Keliher will join an elite group of Island coaches who have earned Level 4 certification, including Academy head coach Jim Rand (gymnastics) and Lewis Page (soccer).

Congratulations C.J.!!!

Success in Los Angeles for Island Gymnastics Academy Gymnasts

Matt Gallant , Alex Mann

Two of Island Gymnastics Academy’s senior gymnasts recently competed at the prestigious Peter Vidmar Invitational in Los Angeles, CA (March 1-3). In its 22nd year, this international event attracts gymnasts from around the world. Host Peter Vidmar was inducted into the US Olympic Hall of Fame in 1991, the USA Gymnastics’ Hall of Fame in 1997 and is the highest scoring American gymnast in Olympic history.

“Travelling to compete in big international meets is an important part of our preparation. It gives our National level athletes the confidence and experience they need to succeed.” says Academy coach C.J. Keliher.

 Alex Mann performed his best routines of the season to earn 69.80 in Level 9. He was ninth overall with a fifth place finish on floor and vault and sixth on pommels. Matt Gallant placed fourteenth all-around (Level 10) in a very strong field of international competitors with a score of 69.700.

GREAT JOB BOYS!!!!!
