2017 Coach of the Year: Jonathan Davies

Jen Browning • Nov 28, 2017

We're pleased to announce the first of our 2017 Canoe Wales Awards winners - Jonathan Davies , winner of the 2017 CW Coach of the Year.

The judges were especially impressed with the impact that Jonathan's coaching has had on a wide range of athletes at all levels in North Wales, from grassroots to elite, and the respect and admiration he has from the athletes and parents who nominated him.

Some of the comments included:

"He goes more than the extra mile with all paddlers and is encouraging and supportive to the individual paddler's journey at every stage .... It's his life rather than his job.."

"He goes above and beyond and gives up his time for every one of his kayakers."

Congratulations to Jonathan and to all our other Coach of the Year award finalists!
