DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS

 

Michael Dmitrik:

 

Ever since early childhood, Michael has always had a passion for sports – specifically for basketball. He motivated himself throughout the years and dedicated an extensive amount of hard-work and dedication towards the game. Michael envisioned the possibility of giving back to the community and wanted to provide an opportunity for others to foster a passion in sports. With Michael’s athletic background and as a physical education teacher at TFS – Canada’s International School, he began CASMA with the intention of providing top-quality programming for the youth of the community. Michael has a B.A. of International Studies from York University and a B.A. of Education from Ottawa University. He is a certified NCCP coach with over 10 years of coaching experience at the under 12, 14, 16 and 20 levels in the C.I.S.A.A league. Michael also coaches teams competing in the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and in the Ontario Basketball Association (OBA). He has also worked closely with current and former NBA players and coaches and has coached prospective professional basketball players currently attending state of the art Universities in the United States. His goal is to provide a unique outlet for children to express themselves whether it be in art, music, sports, etc. and help them to develop and grow in a fun and safe way. Fun fact, Coach Michael is also fluent in English, French and Russian.
