At the 2013 Canadian Tire National Figure Skating Championships last month in Mississauga, Darlene Joseph of the Gloucester Skating Club was presented with her certificate as a Level 5 nationally-certified coach.
Joseph is one of 120 coaches from coast-to-coast to reach that level, of which there are 10 in figure skating. Kelsey MacLean and Nikki Mattocks from Gloucester placed ninth and 18th in the junior women’s category at nationals.
