Killington Mountain School Names Greg Hadley BOOST Alpine Program Director and KSC/KMS J4 Head Alpine Coach
KILLINGTON, Vt. (Oct. 18, 2011) -- Killington Mountain School (KMS) recently announced that Greg Hadley has been appointed to the post of BOOST Alpine Program Director and will be the head coach for the Killington Ski Club(KSC)/KMS J4 Alpine Team.
The BOOST program is an introduction to the academy lifestyle for alpine, freestyle, freeskiing, and snowboard student-athletes. BOOST program participants train with KMS coaches and work with the school’s dedicated teachers, just like student-athletes in the academy’s nine-month and five-month programs. The program offers multiple options for young student-athletes, including three-day camps, one-week camps, two-week sessions and three-month stays during the fall, winter and summer seasons.
Hadley joined the KMS staff in 2005 as a coach with the KMS Weekend Competition Program, working with the J4s as well as coordinating the three-day program offered by KMS. For the past four years he has coached the student-athletes in the J3 program, capping off two of the most successful seasons at KMS with State Championships for both boys and girls. In addition, he sent five athletes to compete at the K2 Nationals in Canada and three athletes to compete in the coveted Whistler Cup.
“We’re excited to have Greg step into this important role within our KMS community,” said Head of School Tao Smith. “He has had excellent results with our J3 teams the past few years, and we look forward to watching him bring his same tenacity and passion to the younger athletes as they start out on their athletic paths.”
Prior to joining the KMS staff, Hadley coached for four years with the J 1-2’s from the same program he grew up skiing with—the Nashoba Valley Rovers in Westford, Mass. where he implemented a travel program for this team. He also has been the owner and director the sales and marketing for Vermont Sport Sales Agency for the past 15 years, where he has worked within the ski, tennis and bike industries. Hadley resides in Woodstock with his significant other, Megan Fisher, and their black lab, Truffle (aka Trouble).
Killington Mountain School is a fully approved Vermont independent school whose mission is to inspire students to pursue excellence in academics and athletics in a culture that promotes integrity, leadership, responsibility, and respect.
