Over the years, I\u2019ve competed in numerous leagues, including XTSC, TSSC, SMVA, TDVC, and PCVC, and I\u2019ve been involved with the NACIVT 9-man circuit for more than 15 years. In addition, I\u2019ve played in a variety of tournaments such as Outtahand, CCVA, CSLA, and KW.\nVolleyball has been a lifelong passion, and I look forward to bringing that same energy and experience to Leaside athletes.                    <\/div>\n\n                                        \n                                    <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n

As a coach, Norman hopes to pass on a passion for the game, a strong work ethic and a solid foundation of self-confidence that will serve athletes and empower them for the rest of their lives.\n\nEver since he started playing volleyball in the 8th grade, Norman has loved the sport. His own playing career started with his school\u2019s team out west in Edmonton, Alberta. During high school, Norman played club volleyball for two years with NAVC and NOOKS, culminating in a top 9 finish at 17U Nationals. At the U of T, Norman continued to play a few seasons with the Tri-Campus D-League and has since kept himself busy with intramurals and getting peer pressured to run on Strava.\n\nNorman graduated from U of T with a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacology, and is currently pursuing his Master\u2019s degree in Medical Science, also at the U of T.                    <\/div>\n\n
