Zakk Morrison currently coordinates the Be Fit for Life Centre and Alberta Sport Development Centre – Southeast Alberta.  Zakk spoke to our group about the Alberta Sport Development Centre.

 

The goal of the Centre is to assist emerging athletes within Medicine Hat and S.E. Alberta reach the next level of competition by providing sports science including nutrition and positive self imagery.

The Centre also publishes Strive Magazine, which provides a means to celebrate the accomplishments of local young athletes, and to facilitate the increase of fitness activities among our youth.  http://www.striveonline.ca/
