\n\t\tKelly Oehlerking\n\t<\/h5>\n
\n\t\tEXECUTIVE DIRECTOR\n\t<\/h5>\n\t

Kelly has been a lifelong sport enthusiast and believes that every child should have the same opportunity that she had to play sport growing up. As she grew into adulthood, she realized what a privilege it was growing up being able to play any sport she wanted. It is her view that sport shouldn’t be a privilege, it should be something every kid is able to participate in no matter their background. She believes that sport plays a key role in every child’s development and teaches kids the skills they need to thrive in their daily lives. She first became connected with the KidSport Calgary chapter while completing her Marketing degree at the University of Calgary. In 2019, her true passion for KidSport was ignited as she began her role as the Community Outreach Coordinator at KidSport Calgary where she assisted with third-party events, applications, marketing, and more. She was proud to help launch a KidSport chapter in her hometown of Lacombe, Alberta in 2020 as a board member to see kids enter the sport community that helped raise her. In 2022, Kelly joined KidSport Alberta as the Development & Communications Manager before stepping into the role of Interim Executive Director. Her goal is to build on the incredible work KidSport Alberta has done, develop more partnerships to help our program succeed, and assist kids across the province play the sport of their choice.<\/p>\n

Sophie joined the KidSport Alberta team as Program Manager for the Every Kid Can Play Program (EKCP).

\n\t\tChelsea Carey\n\t<\/h5>\n
\n\t\tDevelopment & Communications Manager\n\t<\/h5>\n\t

Chelsea is a lifelong athlete, who grew up playing many sports. As competing priorities began, she whittled it down to curling, winning two Scotties Tournament of Hearts Canadian Championships.<\/p>\n

She credits sport with making her the person she is, and realizes now how lucky she was to be able to play without having to worry about financial barriers. She has been a KidSport Ambassador for years because it’s unfathomable to her that any kid be deprived of the opportunities provided by sport due to affordability.<\/p>\n

Chelsea plans to use her athletic experiences, as well as her education and professional experience to help ensure that every kid in Alberta has the same exposure to sport that she had growing up.<\/p>\n
