About the Founder - Coach Holmes

Coach Holmes has dedicated nearly four decades to coaching and mentoring athletes. Her passion for sports and commitment to personal growth have made her a well-respected figure in the track and field community.

Coach Holmes' athletic journey began at El Centro Union High School, where she excelled in both track and field and softball. She went on to earn an Associate's Degree in Behavioral Science from Imperial Valley College, where she showcased her spirited leadership as a cheerleader. Furthering her education, she obtained a Bachelor's Degree in Physical Education from Portland State University while competing in track and field at the collegiate level.

Since 1986, Coach Holmes has coached thousands of athletes, ranging from toddlers to adults (ages 3 to 30). Her coaching expertise extends beyond track and field, having led teams in soccer, softball, T-ball, basketball, and volleyball.

In addition to her coaching career, Coach Holmes has been a dedicated educator for over 23 years, teaching middle school and high school students.
