Sean Kirkwood – Lil Babineau Club Builder Award

Sean has been an enthusiastic gym dad, a dedicated and knowledgeable volunteer and a committed supporter of the Ottawa Gymnastics Centre for more than a decade.  He has spent countless hours as a meet director for the qualifiers and provincial championships we have hosted over the years.  He is so familiar with the apparatus and equipment specifications that he was able to draw a powerpoint layout for the provincial championships setup, only needing Spieth technicians to confirm it.  Sean manages the KSIS system, is aware of scoring issues, rotations, athlete draws, club/coach and athlete registrations, cancellations and amendments.

 

Sean’s outstanding communication and organizational skills have played a vital role in coordinating and managing everything involved in running a successful meet.  He has developed and fostered positive relationships with GO staff and clubs, enhancing collaboration and cooperation within the wider gymnastic community.

 

Sean’s commitment and his willingness to go above and beyond in all his endeavours make him a truly exceptional volunteer.
