intoronto 4,236 Posted October 5, 2022 Author #2 Share Posted October 5, 2022 " Another Olympic rower said that athletes continue to climb the podium “despite” the national organization. She questioned why coach Michelle Darvill wasn’t retained after guiding the women’s eight to Olympic gold. In 2021, Darvill was named both the Canadian coach of the year for all sports, by the Coaching Association of Canada and world rowing coach of the year. “She didn’t have a job the day after we won the Olympics,” she said. “Rowing Canada ended her contract the day after we won the Olympics, she was on a plane with us, no longer an employee of Rowing Canada.” Darvill is now the head coach of the Dutch women’s team, which won seven medals at the recent world championships in the Czech Republic. -Globe and Mail Josh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
