Coach Jhon Doe

Atheltic Background

In high school I played soccer, rugby, golf and basketball.

Soccer was my main focus 20 years and was fortunate to play on the varsity squad Simon Fraser University.

In 2004 I fell in love with boxing after it helped me rehab from a terrible car accident. I competed as an amateur for four years and my highlight was winning the middleweight bronze gloves provincial championship in 2006. I later went on to coach at the famed Astoria Boxing Club for five years and had athletes medal in both the provincial and nationals. While boxing I was introduced to CrossFit and it was love at first sight. It quickly turned into a sport for me and I qualified as a regional athlete in Canada West in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013.

My favorite coach, teacher or mentor and what they taught me:

pI’ve been fortunate to have many great coaches during my athletic pursuits. When you’re young you don’t really realize how much these people sacrifice in terms of volunteering time, money and energy into helping kids / athletes grow into productive members of society. The older I get the more I appreciate what kind of commitment it takes and the obligation I now feel to give back.

He had actually never coached basketball but had two sons Ross and Paul that grew up playing the sport. Mr Naka came from a hockey background; he played major junior
