Coach Becky Mcgee

Coach Becky brings a strong vision for the game of hockey, and as a certified Dale Carnegie trainer, she knows a thing or two about the importance of just-in-time coaching.

In her own playing career, Coach Becky played high performance hockey for the Oval Xtreme in Calgary, competed in several national championships and was a member of the national junior team. She coached Midget AAA for 10 years, even winning coach of the year. She is currently involved in Minor Hockey in Calgary as a volunteer Board Member and Coach for your two daughters. And for Coach Becky, sport is indeed a family affair – with her husband, mom and sisters frequently in the stands cheering on her team. In fact, she draws inspiration from her mom and her way of seeing everything as an opportunity.

Coach Becky believes in lifelong learning, and with a unique ability to communicate with young athletes, her goal is to pass on her passion for physical literacy. Being involved in sports as a kid gave her the gift of confidence, and she hopes all SDR athletes walk away with the conviction that anything is possible – if you put the work in. And hard work is something Coach Becky has never shied away from, even as a teen logging long, hot days of manual labour working for her dad’s swimming pool business.

But there are a couple of things she is afraid of: snakes and rink mice. And if you want to really rile up Coach Becky, simply point out that thin strip of ice that the Zamboni missed.
