Orcas find their new boss in McLeod
The Battlefords Orcas have their new head coach.
Just a few days ago, the swim club announced that John McLeod would be taking over coaching duties for the upcoming season. McLeod, the Thompson, Manitoba native, has tons of experience that he’s going to bring to the club, with 15 years of coaching on his resume.
McLeod told battlefordsNOW that he is ready to get to the Battlefords, and start teaching the youth about swimming, and competitive swimming.
“It’s a small, young, growing club. I’m excited to build the quality and rolling the youth sports in town. There has to be four to five-thousand young people in town and get them swimming,” he said.
