Chilliwack FC affirms new staff roles and responsibilities

July 30, 2022

Following a comprehensive review of current structure and upon recommendations from Technical Director Troye Flannery, the Chilliwack FC Executive has affirmed new roles and responsibilities for each of the club’s staff coaches. Building on the new curriculum Troye Flannery has introduced, each staff coach role has specific qualifications and expectations that will increase the club’s professionalism and offer a new level of accountability to the membership.

Chilliwack FC is very pleased to announce the following new roles:

  • Vaggeli Boucas, Manager of Player Pathway
  • Keith Hatten, Grassroots Manager
  • Zac Munroe, Manager of Coach Development
  • Melissa Palmer, Manager of School Programs
  • Angela Pellerin, Manager of Goalkeeper Development, Manager of Referee Development
  • Megan Tagle, Manager of Supplemental Programs

All manager roles require industry recognized certifications in Child Protection, Respect in Sport, Respect in the Workplace, and Making Ethical Decisions. As well, many of the roles require one or more Canada Soccer licenses or other training befitting the scope of each role.

“We are grateful for Troye Flannery’s leadership in establishing our club’s technical team to execute our new curriculum and deliver best practice programming,” said Richard Tagle, Chilliwack FC Chairperson. “As well, the Chilliwack FC Executive would like to thank the membership for supporting our staff coaches as they begin their new roles servicing the club.”

Biographies for each of the club’s technical team are forthcoming and will be available on the club website shortly.
