I was wondering if there is a quick and easy way of finding out who all a particular coach is working with.
The reason I ask is that I have been sitting on a piece of news that you guys might find interesting. However, there is one crucial piece of the puzzle missing, and I don’t know where to find it.
A few weeks ago, I called into a particular ice rink on the off-chance that I might see one of the international competitive skaters that are based at that rink. As it turned out, neither of them were even in the country – one was on holidays, and the other was doing a competition overseas.
But, what I did see was far more interesting. During the hour or so that I was in the building (I was around the rink 3 or 4 times during that hour, but only for a few minutes each time), there was a training session going on. One skater was on the ice, while another was at the boards, itching to get onto the ice!
I was actually very impressed with the girl that was on the ice. Age-wise, I would estimate that she was 15/16. As you know, I’m no technical expert. But she did look to be spot on with everything she did. Admittedly, she was a bit on the slow side, but the speed should come as she gets more confident.
The thing is, I have no idea who this girl is! I’ve seen photos of quite a few skaters that train at that rink, and from that have been able to work out who the girl that was waiting impatiently by the boards is. But none of the skaters in the photos look like the girl who I actually saw skating.
I suppose I could just contact the other girl through Facebook, and ask her who that was that was on the ice. But I would feel very uncomfortable talking to a girl that young (I reckon that she’s about 12/13).
The interesting thing, though, is the coach that was with them. I recognised the coach straight away. Now, unless the person I’m thinking of has a double that is in the same line of work, this coach is rather famous. And their charges have been rather successful recently. So it would be more than a bit of a coup for these skaters to be working with this coach.
So, is there anywhere I can go to on the internet that has a comprehensive list of all the skaters that a particular coach is working with. If there was, it would be easy to find the girls that I saw, as they would be a different nationality to all the other pupils that I know are on this coach’s books!
I don’t really want to reveal any more details, as I want to make sure that I have got everything right. Especially the identity of the coach (after all, it is possible that it is somebody that just happens to look like another coach).
So, can anybody help?
