CIBI has come on board to support the Squash Ontario Coaching Program.  Thanks to a preexisting partnership with the Coaching Association of Canada (CAC), CIBI has formed an exclusive National Insurance Program for Coaches across Canada that many in our squash community have already taken advantage of.  CIBI has taken their support a step further by sponsoring Squash Ontario’s Coaching Program which will help subsidize the cost of training and certification programs, allowing us to build coaching capacity across Ontario. Strategic initiatives set for 2020-2025 will see a focused effort to increase the number of athletes playing this great sport, along with ambitious targets to grow coaching, officiating, and member clubs. CIBI will be a key contributor to Squash Ontario’s success as we move past this difficult year.

If you are a coach or club administrator seeking insurance, feel free to contact Sean Bell at sbell@cibi.ca.
