OUR STORY

Sharon Butler is the founder and CEO of Coach Mom, an initiative created through real-life experiences. As a Canadian mother and basketball coach herself, Sharon was faced with an onslaught of conflicting information when preparing her own son for American Prep School. It was through this process that Sharon realized just how complex and difficult preparation for this goal can be, which prompted her desire to share not only her first-hand experiences but her wealth of knowledge pertaining to this subject.

Her expertise has been developed through years of experience. She holds a Bachelor of Physical and Health Education from the University of Toronto and is a level 3 certified coach. She coached basketball at the college level for 15 years, played at the university level for 4 years, represented Canada in the sport of netball across the globe as well as competed in the Commonswealth games.  Added to this is her ultimate victory- her son,who earned a full scholarship at an American University where he played for 2 years and has returned home to finish his degree and play at Ryerson University.

Coach Mom was founded from Sharon’s passion for delivering results and providing opportunities to young Canadian athletes. She has dedicated her life to becoming an expert in this field and has a track record of working with young athletes that is bar-none.
