She has spent the last two years as the head coach of Red Deer Catalina Swim Club. Among her pupils is Paralympic gold medalist <strong>Nicholas Bennett<\/strong>, her brother.<\/p>\n<p>Bennett-Osborne began coaching in 2016 at Ravensong Aquatic Club in B.C., eventually becoming the head coach. She was named the Coach of the Year \u2013 Paralympic Program by Swimming Canada in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m excited to step into this role at a time when the program is ready for renewed stability and growth,\u201d Bennett-Osborne said <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimming.ca\/blog\/haley-bennett-osborne-named-coach-of-high-performance-centre-quebec\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in a Swimming Canada press release<\/a>. \u201cAll the pieces that are needed for success are there \u2014 the Montreal Olympic pool, the integrated support team at the Institut National du Sport du Qu\u00e9bec, the resources, and of course we have great athletes. What\u2019s needed now is consistency, and I\u2019m ready to provide that. I believe one of my strengths is really getting to know my athletes and building trust. After so much change over the past few years, I think that\u2019s exactly what the centre needs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bennett-Osborne\u2019s role begins in the fall. The center in Montreal was closed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/canadian-olympic-trials-seeking-new-venue-after-montreal-olympic-park-fire\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">when a fire damaged the Olympic Park Sports Centre last March<\/a>, requiring a relocation of last year\u2019s Olympic Trials to Toronto. The Quebec center is the hub of Swimming Canada\u2019s success in paraswimming, which will at that point be coming off the World Championships in Singapore.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is great to have Haley on board with Swimming Canada,\u201d High Performance Director and National Coach <strong>John Atkinson<\/strong> said. \u201cHer experience and success as a coach will be a great addition to Swimming Canada as we continue to move our centre and national programs forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn one of his most important days ever as an athlete, she was still open to input, and that\u2019s the type of person she will be in this role. She cares deeply about her athletes and the people around them. That matches the culture we want to instill,\u201d said <strong>Ryan Allen<\/strong>, Swimming Canada\u2019s National Coach Lead, Paralympic Program. \u201cShe\u2019s very excited to prove this is a place that is a high performance environment that athletes around the country can come to thrive in. She\u2019s motivated by high performance, has a strong track record and the supports in place are excellent.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Swimming Canada Hires Haley Bennett-Osborne to Head HPC Quebec Swimming Canada this week hired Haley Bennett-Osborne to head the High Performance Centre in Quebec when it reopens later this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8367,"featured_media":479189,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"dois","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[122077,62076],"tags":[136115,25052,75903,42009,125153,25053],"class_list":["post-612354","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-americas","category-paralympics","tag-haley-bennett-osborne","tag-john-atkinson","tag-nicholas-bennett","tag-paralympics","tag-paraswimming","tag-swimming-canada"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.3 (Yoast SEO v24.3) -
