Finally the chance to chop it up with Canadian basketball royalty, the former Women’s National Team Coach, SFU women’s dynasty, high school and all in between as we have none other than Allison McNeill with us for Episode 143!
If for some reason you don’t know Allison’s story then let us remind you…..as a player- back-to-back Championships in both high school AND University, transferred to Division 1 Oregon, and played pro ball overseas. Life certainly changed for Allison when she made the move to Salmon Arm, where her and Bev Smith created a women’s high school dynasty, from there her hoops life took off!
Once playing wrapped up at the University of Oregon and a short stint overseas, Allison came back home and found herself in Revelstoke with a teaching and coaching job, knowing for a long time that she wanted to become a coach. From there she continued to develop her craft, watching the National team practice on VHS and in person, building her notes and helping grow the game anyway she possibly could.
After she moved to the lower mainland and coached at a couple of high schools the job came open at Simon Fraser University, she applied, got the job and never looked back. The mid 80’s and 90’s “up on the hill” found fantastic hoopers and people come through the program, all while being Nationally ranked at the NAIA level along the way!
Allison (alongside her lifelong partner and amazing hoops brain Mike) was then appointed the Senior Women’s National Team job after a couple of experiences with the student and junior teams. She takes great pride in the time put in with the program, watching the women climb in the world rankings with the pinnacle being a trip to the 2012 Olympics!
We could literally go on forever, just do yourself the favor and tap in to this episode with one of the greatest in Canadian history!
