About SJASSC

SJASSC is a Volunteer run organization with many people contributing in many ways according to their abilities and interests. Most board members also represent SJASSC on the Speed Skate New Brunswick Board and/or committees. Head coaches are paid positions.

RIP Rachael Quinn. We miss you

The Saint John Speed Skating club has lost a valued member of our community. Rachel dedicated a huge part of her life to the sport of Speed Skating and served as head coach for SJSSC for many years. She instilled a love of the sport in her students and also mentored many to fall in her footsteps of coaching. Rachel’s four children were also active skaters in our club and we wish to send our sincere condolences to them and their families on their loss. Rachel is remembered fondly by all our Alumni who knew her so well. Please see below for more information on her obituary:

All the remaining groups (1 to 4) are the same.
