What does the KRA mean to you / why is the KRA important to you?

I love that our community has programs (like soccer) available locally.

U6 Soccer Coach

This is Renata's second year coaching U6 soccer for the KRA. She is a firm believer that if you want programs to exist in the community, that you must be willing to volunteer your time occasionally. 

Her favorite part of coaching is getting to know more people in the community and listening to all the stories the kids want to tell her.

A fun fact about Renata is that she grew up on a dairy farm!

What does the KRA mean to you / why is the KRA important to you?

The KRA means so much to me and what they do is so amazing to many people. The KRA is where I started my sports career about 14 years ago and it has also been a big impact to me, so helping out with them brings me much joy!

U6 Soccer Coach

Hannah has been coaching sports for the past 2 years. She decided to become a coach this year because she adores helping with sports and giving chances to as many kids as possible to play a sport as it creates so many precious memories and stories to tell.

What Hannah loves most about what she does is that she gets to not only help kids learn about sports, but when they learn from a sport the players also learn a bit about life. No matter what age it is, there is an opportunity in sports to learn the fundamentals about many things.

Fun Fact: Hannah recently returned from Regina, Saskatchewan where she played tackle football with the first ever U18 Female Team New Brunswick team, where they took 3rd place in the whole country and was the first ever tackle team to receive a medal at nationals.

Jennine King

What does the KRA mean to you / why is the KRA important to you?

Having the KRA means allowing kids, including my own, to develop new skills and have fun while staying active in our own community.

U6 Soccer Coach

Jennine is helping coach the U6 team this year and it’s her first time coaching & being involved with KRA. While this is her first year as a coach, she’s played sports her entire life. Jennine loves to watch the players develop new skills and have fun while being active. This season, she is hoping to watch her daughter and all of the other players have fun and develop new skills.

Kailie Arbeau

What does the KRA mean to you / why is the KRA important to you?

Keswick is a small community, so it’s important to stay connected and be involved. It’s such a privilege to have a sports program that doesn’t require a 20-minute drive.

U6 Soccer Coach

Kailie has wanted to get more involved with the community since the pandemic has isolated many of us. While she has never coached soccer before, she has coached cheerleading for more years than she can count! She loves watching the kids learn new skills and joining in herself to play games with the players.

Fun fact: Kailie ran a marathon! She also started working at a dairy farm to cross it off her bucket list
