Stef ZAs members of the Markham-Stouffville Jr. Stars Girls Hockey team, Stefaine and Stephanie understand what it takes to compete at the next level. They are leaders both on and off the ice, pushing themselves and their teammates to compete every single day. Battling through personal injury and team adversity has further helped their development.

After completing a summer conditioning program with their team atSteph D A4A during the summer, Stef and Steph have continued to work with Coach Brad Corcoran to achieve new levels of athletic performance. The combined efforts of the team, Coaching Staff, and A4A’s training allowed the Jr. Stars to have a successful and competitive showing against the Women’s National Olympic Hockey Team from China. Both girls have aspirations to compete at the University level next season, and are taking all of the necessary steps to compete at that level.

 

A4A Post Card

A4A looks at three key goals in athletic training:

  • Increasing the athlete's overall performance
  • Improving wellness
  • Lowering risk of injury
A4A pursues these goals through personalized, athlete centered programming. Athletes and teams are encouraged to look at the "big picture" regarding the results of the program on their performance. We support athletes in determining what measurement they will use to gauge their success. Once the success criteria are made clear, a program is built to meet these objectives. Athletes will benefit from the knowledge of A4A staff and through participation in the athlete centered programming approach. We will work with coaches, parents and teachers to meet the specific needs of each individual.
