Thompson spent 26 seasons as UVic assistant coach
Stories about understudies have fuelled many a plotline in movies and literature. Krista Thompson has been the ultra-understudy, for more than a quarter-century, on the University of Victoria Vikes women’s field hockey bench to iconic head coach and Olympian Lynne Beecroft.
The native of New Brunswick has prepared well for the role, inside and outside Ring Road, and Thompson is also B.C. high performance coach and coach of the UVic Rising Stars program and has coached the Canada NextGen team and has been assistant coach for the Canadian national team at the Commonwealth Games.
Thompson said her focus is on developing the whole individual on and off the pitch: “My philosophy is to make a difference and create a learning environment so athletes can grow as people and players.”
